• The One Thing Stealing Your Energy—And How to Take It Back
    2025/12/09

    “Most people aren’t stuck… they’re just unclear.”

    Clarity is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself—and the people you lead. When life feels heavy, when decisions pile up, when you’re exhausted from trying to juggle everything, it’s rarely a capacity issue. It’s a clarity issue.


    This conversation breaks down why overwhelm shows up, how to cut through the noise, and the simple daily practices that help you recenter, refocus, and move forward with purpose. From writing future-present goals to choosing your “one thing,” to building stillness into your mornings, this episode gives you the tools to stop spinning and start leading from a grounded, intentional place.


    If your mind has felt scattered lately… this is the reset your leadership has been waiting for.


    • [00:01:00] “You can multitask… but you can’t multi-focus.”
    • [00:03:00] Why stepping back from commitments created room for growth.
    • [00:05:00] Teams don’t get tired from work—they get tired from unclear work.
    • [00:06:00] The 10-Goal Exercise: the simplest path to focus.
    • [00:07:00] William’s own “one thing” goal rooted in generosity.
    • [00:09:00] W.I.N. — What’s Important Now? A journaling prompt that reduces overwhelm instantly.


    Take 10 minutes today. Write your 10 goals. Circle the one that changes everything. Protect it. Move toward it daily. That’s where clarity begins.

    If you want help finding your “one thing” or aligning your life around your purpose, connect with William at williamgarayjr.com or on LinkedIn.
