EXTRAORDINARY
This was a tweet from Josh Sundquist:
Lunch Friday with @KeithFerrazzi: He said “I’ve never met a truly extraordinary person who was focused on more than one thing in life.”

Does this hit you the way it hit me?
I never met anyone as spread out as myself, nor anyone as un-extraordinary at anything.
Do many of us really want to be extraordinary? I think it depends on how we define the word. We all want to be a little above ordinary - SOMETHING that makes us stand out from the crowd.
After all, that’s how we get seen and how others get sold on what we have, such as our skills or our products.
I think KeithFerrazi is referring to super extraordinary people who have achieved Gold Medal accomplishments.
Or is he?
We all need to excel in something in order to make a living.
The quote above implies we need to FOCUS.
Understood.

More from Josh Sundquist:
“We usually can’t do anything about our lack of time, but we can do everything about our lack of focus.”
“Create a daily schedule that reflects your purpose, so that when your days are ultimately added up they will really count for something.”
“Slept till 1 today. Being self-employed is the best.”

From HelloMyNameisScott @ Blogspot:
“Assault the minute. Optimize your time. Ask yourself, “What are you wasting your time and energy on that isn’t making you any money?” That’ll change your agenda pretty quickly. Is what you’re doing right now consistent with your #1 goal?”
The new Money Me considers the above, crucial.
