Most people fail, not because of a lack of effort, but because their effort is misdirected.


Weve been raised in a world that constantly tells us that working hard will help us achieve everything we deserve and have dreamed of. We often get so wrapped up in the idea of working hard (and then frustrated when things dont quite go as planned) that we forget to take a moment to reflect on what our energy has been channelled into and the impact of the effort made.


So, in this episode of Everyday Leadership, Sope asks us to question whether we are fixated on working hard instead of focusing on the tasks that will lead to the outcomes were looking for.


[00:00] The greatest lie were told about work

[02:32] The myth of hard work

[04:40] Misdirecting your effort and the 80/20 rule

[07:00] Reflect on your past to understand what to focus on

[09:15] The role of strategy

[10:58] Why hard work alone doesnt work
