What if the only thing holding you back isn’t lack of ideas, but lack of focus? In this episode, Brett McDermott unpacks how entrepreneurs can cut through daily resistance and lock in on the work that really moves the needle.

If you're new here, get ready to learn why a long list of tasks can be a bad idea, and how to work in "structured sprints" instead of "endless marathons". From defeating distractions to structuring your time like a pro, this conversation is all about building the focus muscle that separates busy work from meaningful progress.

Key Takeaways:

• Set clear intentions and stick to a short list of priorities.
• Work in 50–90 minute sprints instead of grinding endlessly.
• Cut digital distractions—every interruption costs more than you think.
• Fuel your brain: hydrate and eat protein-rich meals.
• Single-task and practice mindfulness to sharpen attention.
• Protect your sleep—it’s the ultimate foundation for focus.
