I've come to find out that doing the basics super well is really sufficient for most things. When we are able to do well at the basics it opens the door for future developments and opportunities. When we try to do too much at times that can really throw us off.
I talked about showing up for the things that really move the needle of life forward, instead of getting caught up in a bunch of things just for the hype. This one surely hit home for me as there are times where I want to just move things along quickly and I sacrifice doing the basics and I lose clarity/momentum. Hope this was helpful. :)
