Leaders Must Understand Multitasking Pulls Down Performance No person in the world can do two things equally well at the same time.

Killing The Dragon Daily
Steven Pressfield calls it the resistance. I call it the dragon. It’s voice in our head and heart that tells us to be careful, to back off, go slow, to compromise or to settle. It can be writer’s block to a writer, a slump to an athlete or a plateau to a leader.
