MCP090: From Scattered to Super Focused By Right Effort in Today’s World
Hey there! Today’s #MeetCoolPeople episode is a little different. It’s just you and me. I wanted to talk about something that shows up for every entrepreneur I know, myself included: overwhelm, busyness, and lack of results.
Today, I’m going to share the process of Right Effort & Getting Ultra Focused to help overcome these issues.
This episode was created for both my podcast and my 7th Fold Project YouTube channel as I feel that it applies in both areas. The idea hit me after talking with clients and friends who are feeling stretched every which way. Maybe you’re in that spot, too. You’ve got a stack of books, too many online courses, and a pile of business ideas, but it feels like you’re running in circles and not really getting anywhere.
We covered what “Right Effort” means, and how it can change not just your business, but your whole life if you truly pay attention to it. This principle comes from the Buddhist Eightfold Path, but you don’t need to study Buddhism to see why it matters now more than ever.
Here’s what I want you to remember from this episode:
- Focus Beats Hustle: Spreading yourself thin across 10 things leads to frustration, not results. Find that one thing you do best and double down.
- Know Your Audience: Get laser clear about who you serve and what problem you solve. The people doing well right now are ultra-niched.
- Simplify Ruthlessly: Stop trying to do everything. The more you streamline, the faster you see progress, and the easier your life and business become.
- Consistency Matters: Once you know what you do and who it’s for, put your message out there, over and over, in front of the people who actually need it.
- Less Is More: You don’t need to be everywhere or help everyone. Do more with less, and keep your sanity.
I’d love to hear your thoughts or how you’re applying this. If you want to watch the video, check out the 7th Fold Project on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/@7thFoldProjects.
Or if you want more episodes like this, let me know. I’m hoping that this helps you find clarity this week.
