How A Singular Focus Drives Success

success lists are short.

Rocket Goals begin by clearly remembering your future self using prospective memory.
With that ideal state clearly in mind - it’s time to prioritize the MOST important goal that will help unlock and power all your other goals. This is your “One Thing”. Having a clear focus on your “One Thing” not only provides long-term clarity, but it also provides day-to-day and even hour-to-hour focus on all the various tasks that need attention, allowing you to steadily and enjoyably see progress and results, one result-focused task after the other.
