Earlier today, I was on a training call with a woman, and my heart really went out to her.

Part of having a successful business is being focused. If you’re constantly scattered and not working towards a goal, it’s going to be very hard to be successful. You’ll never reach your goals if you’re working in different directions. You may be thinking “I’m focused on my business all day – it’s always on my mind; and I’m still not…
