Everyone comes to a point where there is so much to do that they don’t know where to begin. Some people jump from one task to another and get nothing accomplished, becoming more frustrated. A Black Belt will make a “To Do” list, prioritize, and stick to that list.

Focus on the #1 item until it is finished. Then, and only then, move to the second item. If something urgent comes up, adjust accordingly, but always return to the original list. Black Belts know how to focus and not shatter their brains into fragments trying to do too many things at once where nothing gets accomplished.
