Focus is undoubtedly one of the most important qualities of leadership.  Knowing the right thing to do is vital, but actually doing it, is the result of focus and determination.

You don’t necessarily have to be smarter or better educated to succeed.  Your power lies in your ability to focus on doing what is important.  If you focus on the right things, and work at them often, you will achieve exceptional results.  -  Mark Sanborn

Don’t just focus on  getting things done.  Focus on the most important things you need to accomplish.  Usually, there is a world of difference.
