The More You Try to Do, the Less You Accomplish – Why Focus WinsEpisode Description:Are you juggling too many priorities and making little progress? In this episode, we break down a hard truth from The 4 Disciplines of Execution by Chris McChesney, Sean Covey, and Jim Huling: "The more you try to do, the less you actually accomplish."
