The Fragmented Focus Treadmill™

  • Are you finding it difficult to stay focused on the “important” things because there are too many “urgent” things needing your immediate attention?

  • Do you start each day determined to achieve your goals but end the day with the important work undone? 

  • To add misery to this confusion, are you working harder but not getting further ahead?

  • Have you found yourself losing sight of why you started your own business? 

These are all indications that you are stuck on The Fragmented Focus Treadmill.    

Judi Hughes, from Your Planning Partners, will introduce you to practical ways to get off the Fragmented Focus Treadmill and stay focused.  Having clear focus will:

  • Give you new energy and enthusiasm.
  • Save you time & money.
  • Stop you from recreating the wheel.
  • Save you from making costly mistakes.

 

In this presentation, you will receive “tried and true” tools, tips and techniques to help you:

  • Create focus through realistic strategic action plans.
  • Identify, manage and monitor your Critical Success Factors.
  • Complete both the “important” and the “urgent” things.
  • Identify and stay focused on your Ideal Client.
  • Create your Marketing Numbers Game and Revenue Pipeline to keep your marketing and sales activities focused.
