The One Word That Built a $50 Billion Fortune

Episode Description from the Publisher

You are probably already doing the same things the people on the cover of Success magazine do. In this episode of DarrenDaily On-Demand, Darren Hardy argues that what actually separates the highest achievers is not what they do, but what they refuse to do, and that the real master skill of success is the ability to say no. He draws on a candid answer Warren Buffett gave him about the one key to his fortune, a principle the late Steve Jobs lived by, and the blunt advice Jobs once handed the incoming CEO of Nike. This episode dives into why saying no to good, tempting, ego-flattering commitments is the true separating factor, and leaves you with a simple audit of your own calendar. Focus, it turns out, is mostly subtraction.
