6 Steps From Average To Extraordinary\\xa0
The Most Powerful Quotes from The One Thing:
Focus
When you want the absolute best chance to succeed at anything you want, your approach should always be the same. Go small. \\u201cGoing small\\u201d is ignoring all the things you could do and doing what you should do. It\\u2019s recognizing that not all things matter equally and finding the things that matter most. It\\u2019s a tighter way to connect what you do with what you want. It\\u2019s realizing that extraordinary results are directly determined by how narrow you can make your focus.

Extraordinary results require focused attention and time. Time on one thing means time away from another.

Habit
When we know something that needs to be done but isn\\u2019t currently getting done, we often say, \\u201cI just need more discipline.\\u201d Actually, we need the habit of doing it. And we need just enough discipline to build the habit.

When it comes to willpower, timing is everything. You will need your willpower at full strength to ensure that when you\\u2019re doing the right thing, you don\\u2019t let anything distract you or steer you away from it. Then you need enough willpower the rest of the day to either support or avoid sabotaging what you\\u2019ve done. That\\u2019s all the willpower you need to be successful.

Saying no
The art of saying yes is, by default, the art of saying no. Saying yes to everyone is the same as saying yes to nothing. Each additional obligation chips away at your effectiveness at everything you try.

Bill Cosby summed up this productivity thief perfectly. As he was building his career, Cosby read some advice that he took to heart: \\u201cI don\\u2019t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.\\u201d


Happiness
A life lived on purpose is the most powerful of all \\u2014 and the happiest.

Life is too short to pile up woulda, coulda, shouldas.

Success
The key is over time. Success is built sequentially. It\\u2019s one thing at a time.

We each have passions and skills, but you\\u2019ll see extraordinarily successful people with one intense emotion or one learned ability that shines through, defining them or driving them more than anything else.

Success requires action, and action requires thought.

Everyone has the same amount of time, and hard work is simply hard work. As a result, what you do in the time you work determines what you achieve.

There is a natural rhythm to our lives that becomes a simple formula for implementing the ONE Thing and achieving extraordinary results: purpose, priority, and productivity.

Live with purpose. Live by priority. Live for productivity.

Finally, I want to leave you with some additional quotes from other people that the authors had included in the book:

\\u201cSuccess demands singleness of purpose.\\u201d \\u2014 Vince Lombardi

\\u201cFocus is a matter of deciding what things you\\u2019re not going to do.\\u201d \\u2014 John Carmack

\\u201cPeople do not decide their futures, they decide their habits and their habits decide their futures.\\u201d \\u2014 F. M. Alexander

\\u201cPlanning is bringing the future into the present so that you can do something about it now.\\u201d \\u2014 Alan Lakein

\\u201cThe art of being wise is the art of knowing what to overlook.\\u201d \\u2014 William James

The key learning for me is this: Vigilantly focus your energy and time on the one key thing. Consistently and with purpose.
