In this Book Club session, we bring you "Just One Thing" by Gary Keller: a clear and actionable guide to achieving extraordinary results by focusing your energy, time, and attention on what truly moves the needle. A straightforward book that debunks myths (multitasking, "balanced life," infinite willpower) and gives us a guiding question for life: What is one thing that, if you do it, will make everything else easier or unnecessary? Keep learning!
