    •   ”Focus is a really hard thing to capture in business every single day. -Khalil
    • “It's the little things that matter most. The reason they matter the most is that they are the things you can actually do.” -Martin
    • “I think what the focus should be is what's the biggest constraint, what constraint is choking us the most?” -Khalil
    • The thing about focus is that it implies that it's the one thing you're working on, but it doesn't absolve you from doing everything else.  You still have to do everything else, but you're not involved in making change, as you are on the thing you're focusing on. -Martin
