I hate milk, wait -- hate is a strong word, I dislike milk. But for this short piece of advice I'm about to drop on you -- You're going to need to get your "milk".

JUST GO STRAIGHT FOR THE MILK.

Have you ever noticed when you walk in to a grocery store the milk is always in the back of the store. (if not, your grocery store is doing "grocery store" all wrong) They do this shit on purpose because the majority of people buy milk when they go grocery shopping. Or nowadays almond milk, soy milk, raw milk, hell even breast milk, well maybe not the last one but you get the point. All the milk is in the back of the grocery store.

By putting the most sought after grocery item in the back of the store they hope that people will buy all the other shit they see or bump in to on the way to getting their milk. Yes, even if all you need that day is some milk -- they are betting on you to walk all the way to the back of the store and hope that you see something else and add it to your short list of just milk.

WELL DON'T! JUST GET YOUR FUCKING MILK!

My point is this. In life we have goals, we have action items, we have things to do on our to-do list. Make these goals, items, and to-do's your "MILK". Be focused. Go GET YOUR MILK. Don't let pretty displays of potato chips or end caps of soda or cookies distract you. You didn't go in the store to get soup on aisle 6, you went there to get your milk. So go in there and GET YOUR MILK.

DO YOU HEAR WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY HERE...

We all have great business goals, fitness goals, or whatever task/idea we want to get done, but shit won't get done if we don't focus. If we keep letting things distract us. Oh, and don't think just because its something little or small that it won't take up your time... that shit will pile up and before you know it you're back on aisle 6 getting soup and not your milk!

WHATEVER it is you want, FOCUS! you need to FOCUS!

...now go get your milk.
