Focus
Master Your Day with the MIT Principle
Before starting any other work, identify your single Most Important Task (MIT) for the day. This is the one task that, if completed, would create the most significant impact. Dedicate your first block of focused time solely to completing this MIT, avoiding all distractions until it is done.
•
Prioritizing and completing your MIT first ensures that your most valuable work gets done, even if unforeseen disruptions occur later. This approach builds powerful momentum, reduces decision fatigue by simplifying your initial focus, and prevents high-leverage tasks from being neglected. It cultivates deep work habits, leading to higher quality output and a profound sense of accomplishment, setting a productive tone for the entire day.
