Does it mean to do each task better than the other person, or could it mean to stop doing it and work less? If you guessed the latter, you would be right. We\\u2019ve bought into the notion that hard work is necessary to achieve big results. Top performers aren\\u2019t lazy. They are focused on results. What can be eliminated from the work routine that steals time and doesn\\u2019t contribute value-added time to the result? It is time to challenge the traditional way of thinking and to consider new conventions of success. What are you currently doing that you should stop doing, that will allow you to focus better and achieve better results? Why do kids have homework in school? Why do hotels check in their guests? Good questions! Start focusing on value and result, and you will be focusing time and attention on the few critical processes that will lead to success.\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\nLearn more about Morten Hansen and his work by clicking here.\\xa0 You can also check out his new book Great\\xa0at Work: How Top Performers Work Less and Achieve More on his website, or click here to go to Amazon.\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\n\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\nClick here to check out our newest leadership development tool \\u2013 LEAD \\u2013 Leadership Education and Development\\xa0\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\n\\xa0\\n\\nSteve Caldwell is an executive mentor and coach to managers and leaders who desire to excel in their career and become the leader others want to follow.
