Grant Cardone Shares A Secret You Can Use To Accomplish Big Goals: 'You Can Do Anything As Long as You Don't Try To Do Everything'

Some people accomplish big goals that make others marvel. More importantly, people often feel good when they achieve goals that they have worked on for years. Real estate investor and bestselling author Grant Cardone has done a lot in his lifetime, and he shares a key secret you can use to accomplish big goals as well.

"You can do anything as long as you don't try to do everything," Cardone revealed.

Less is more, and if you try to do too much, you can spread yourself too thin. Cardone's message is valuable for people who get distracted by shiny objects and pursue new things before completing their current goals. Here's how you can harness this valuable lesson with your career and finances.

Start With A Wide Scope

Although focusing on a few things can increase the likelihood of success, you should start with a wide scope first. Try a bunch of side hustles, start learning various skills, and continue to grow in multiple areas.

This approach makes sense for people who are trying to figure out their specialties. If you commit to one thing too early, you risk missing out on a better investment strategy or a more suitable career, given your expertise and what you enjoy. 

In the long run, a wide scope can stall your progress. A jack of all trades is truly a master of none, but you can learn more about what works for you in the short run.

Narrow Your Focus As You Progress

After trying out different things, you eventually have to eliminate some items from your schedule. You can prioritize actions that have generated the best results and move you closer to your long-term goals.

"Focus is power," one user replied to Cardone's X post. "By concentrating your efforts, you amplify your ability to achieve meaningful results. Avoid spreading yourself too thin."

Each time you say yes to something, you say no to something else. If you say yes to activities that won't bear much fruit, then you say no to the activities that can generate the most revenue. However, each time you say no, you are also saying yes to something. If you say no to distractions and unproductive activities, then you are saying yes to the work that will move you closer to your long-term goals.

Pareto's Principle Supports Cardone's Assertion

Pareto's principle states that 80% of your results come from 20% of your efforts. This is a common theme in multiple industries and across individual goals. You can find this in benchmarks like the S&P 500, where the Magnificent 7 heavily weighs on the index. Businesses may also find that a small number of their customers are responsible for the majority of their sales.

While Pareto's Principle states that a few actions drive most of your results, it's simultaneously stating another key detail. According to that principle, 80% of your work only produces 20% of your results. If you reduce the unproductive work and allocate that effort to the 20% of tasks that produce 80% of your results, you can move much further.

That's why Cardone believes you can do anything as long as you aren't doing everything. Putting more tasks and responsibilities on your plate will eventually lead to overwhelm. Focusing on a few small things and building up when necessary can help you accomplish ambitious objectives.
