loved every minute of this audiobook. the narrator's voice is intelligent yet smooth which makes it an interesting and easy listen.

filled with advice, what to do and how to do it.

I find I want to do a lot and then wonder why I don't get much work done.

the main point I took away is although I really want to do so many things (let's say 3) a few of them (let's say 2) are just shiny and made to distract while the thing that will get me what I want doesn't get as much attention.

going to go over notes and find my one thing!

One of the best I've listened to!

Focusing on one thing seems like an easy task but often we are forced to multi task in our jobs. But choosing one thing as a priority really works. You still get all the other things done but the direction you’re going happens a lot faster. I put this into practice when I started reading and by the end of the book it was like a moving train. Brilliant. Nice narration too.

Excellent book. Great concept that works.

I loved this book. Being a person who finds it hard to focus because I have so much to do. it explains how to get that focus in a very easy simple way.

Get your priorities straight.

This was so refreshing! I will start today with my one thing! NOW!! The day is already divided into blocks! This will make me a happier person. Read it and put it to action.
But why this horrible, disturbing music?????????

One have to read!!

Worth reading but uses a lot of Mathew Gladwell, Stephen Covey and others way of thinking.
Felt a bit repetitive for me.

Worth the read

Enjoyed the book and the storyline. The ideas expressed in the books reinforced the common process to achieving things but also added new concepts to look and do things differently

It's the one thing to help you get success
