Are You As Focused As A Bee?

Are You As Focused As A Bee? is an enlightening look at how to improve your focus by learning from the incredible lives of honeybees. It offers a radical approach to give you the clarity, confidence, and control you crave to accomplish what is most important to you.

What could you accomplish if you improved your ability to focus?

Are you tired of fighting the countless distractions coming at you every day?

How would your life change if you approached each day with purpose and made steady progress toward your goals?

Key Objectives:

  • Boost your productivity with a proven system for completing high impact tasks that align with your goals.
  • Reduce distractions and lower the pull towards low-priority activities, creating space for what truly matters.
  • Simplify big projects with an effective system to break them into achievable steps that lead to consistent success.
  • Strengthen your ability to recognize when you are overwhelmed and how to quickly reset to stay present and productive.

What To Do About Too Much To Do?

Does this sound familiar?  You have too much to do, too many priorities, too much stress and too little time.  If this sounds like you, you may want to run away and join the circus!  And you should!  Well, mentally, that is. Using the engaging metaphor of a circus ringmaster (you) balancing the rings of Work, Relationships and Self, Jones equips participants to win against the struggle of competing priorities, take greater control of their time and energy, and accomplish what is most important to them and their organization.

How to be a Stronger Leader in any Season

You want to take your leadership to the next level, but the question is “How?” You need a practical blueprint to change. Jones Loflin says that new approach is built on four simple words: Grow, Cultivate, Prune, and Harvest. Based on his book, Always Growing, Jones uses the simple analogy of a gardener to give a fresh perspective on how you can motivate, empower, and develop any team. Organizations including Volvo and Choice Hotels have chosen this program for the way the model integrates with their specific needs and perspectives for their leadership training.

Now we go Home...So What?

The end of the conference is the start of the real work… putting ideas into action. How do you do that when you already have too much to do? You have spent the past few days taking in all this new information, networking with your peers, and started thinking about how far behind you are at work. But have you thought about the right strategies to achieve better results when you return home? How will you take all you have gained at the conference and implement these ideas into your already overloaded schedule? Jones Loflin says the answer lies in 5 simple words: Who, What, Where, When, and Why.
