Remember those shiny, worthy goals you set every new year, and by mid January start to drift away in a super busy calendar, where you do so much - but most of it is not bringing the results you were looking for?

Do you EVER, ever realize that a whole hour of your time has gone down the drain and you have no idea what happened? (And was there any digital device close by?) Or did you start a task, just to leave it half way to search for something, then half finished a totally different job, realizing hours later that the most important task was still undone?

If ‘scattered mind’ could describe you well, you will totally have a blast listening to this fun, goal-oriented episode with my guest Jones Loflin. As a coach, speaker, author and bee- keeper, Jones has learned the art of focus in depth - and his bees have been his mentors.

That’s right. In this candid interview, Jones will delight you with actionable, effective interventions you can implement today to ensure that you are going in the right directions without detours. You will be able to shift your mindset from ‘busy bee’ to ‘focused bee’.

And if you are keen to know more, how about checking out Jones’ book ‘Focused as a Bee’, which is packed full of strategies to help you achieve the goals you care about? You can find it here https://jonesloflin.com/faab
