I want to post this conversation that I just had with my friend Patrick on his podcast,
The Best Like The Best, and I want to tell you why.
So a few weeks ago, he called me after listening to the episode,
it was episode 383, the one I did on Todd Graves.
It's called Todd Graves and his $10 billion chicken figure dream.
And Patrick asked me to come to New York and record an episode with him on the topic of focus.
And if I had to simplify and distill what I've learned from this entire project,
you know, eight years, maybe nine years, close to nine years.
almost 400 biographies of history's greatest entrepreneurs read to one word.
That is definitely the word that I would choose, which is focus.
It is, I believe,
it is the single most prominent attribute that the people that I've studied on the podcast have that I think the rest of the world lacks.
In fact, I just flew to San Francisco to meet and have a conversation with my friend Daniel Eck,
who is the founder of Spotify.
We probably talked close to four hours and there's Probably not another living entrepreneur that I've learned more from than Daniel.
And he actually gave me really great advice.
And I think he did this inadvertently.
I don't even think he meant to.
And the advice was related to focus.
He had told me how more and more people ask for your time.
