When you’re running a business you never have a minute to just think.  “Focus time” helps to just unwind those thoughts and get in touch with the answers.  Once a week I turn off the office phone, my cell phone, close the door and place an appoitnment in my calander called “focus time”.  I try to only do one task and complete that task 100%.  Put on some music, relax and think through an issue.  Take some notes and layout a plan of action.  This type of “off” switch really helps to get through those tough decisions or tasks.
