The Little Blue Book reminds us to “Focus on the Things that are Productive.” Such focus is accomplished through Intentionality. Knowing the pinnacle lies ahead, Intentionality governs our first step in moving forward with focus, balance, and fearlessness.
“Focus on the Things that are Productive:” that phrase has been an important statement in my career for a long time – well before it was published in the Datamax Little Blue Book.
Focusing on the things that are productive, to me, answers the question as to why we come to work in the first place.

Focusing on the things that are productive, to me, answers the question as to why we come to work in the first place. Are we passionate about what we do? Do we dwell on the negative or on things that are simply out of our control? On the other hand, do we focus on the positive and make the best of what we have in front of us?" - Barry Simon
