James Carville said… “It’s the economy, stupid,” and helped to win the presidential campaign for Bill Clinton. This campaign relentlessly focused on the economy… and the results? Well… you know the rest of the story. Bill Clinton was the “economy” candidate. Focus won. Clinton won.

Here’s another example. Sears used to be America’s department store. Now… they’re a casualty. Consider their competitors though…

NEIMAN MARCUS – Stuff to die for.

WAL MART – Good stuff so cheap you won’t believe it.

BLOOMINGDALES – Shopping as entertainment.

Sears focused on everything, and ultimately nothing. If you do not have a focus, you may soon not have a business.
