The Power of Ruthless Prioritization with Dr. David Maloley

Stephen Covey was spot on when he said, “The key is not to prioritize what’s on your schedule but to schedule your priorities.”

 

If you want to make more with less work, you need to leverage the principles of ruthless prioritization, that is, eliminating anything that does not add value toward achieving your goal.

Sometimes, you need to get rid of the good to focus on the great.

I’ll also discuss how to find the hidden potential in life’s harsh realities of unfairness. And as a bonus, I’ll share with you 5 highly recommended books to guide you on how you can make more by working less.
