The ONE Thing

Book recommendation

The ONE Thing helps  cut through overwhelm by focusing on the single most important action that drives real progress and results.

Why?

It teaches how to identify and commit to their most high-leverage task, rather than getting lost in multitasking or reacting to busywork. It’s not just time management—it’s clarity management.
