More Doesn't Always Mean Better

Do you ever find yourself working harder than ever, only to feel like the results you dream of are always just out of reach?

It’s exhausting and deeply frustrating.

A few weeks ago, I talked about the dangers of over-diversifying a product’s features.

It’s like noticing a small crack in the foundation, only to realize the entire structure is at risk of collapse.

Here’s the truth: more doesn’t always mean better.

Sometimes, success isn’t about working harder—it’s about working smarter, focusing your energy, and aligning your actions with intentional strategies.

I learned this the hard way last year. As a coach—not a social media guru—I tried to juggle the endless demands of every platform while still running my business.

I thought that if I could just stay visible everywhere, the results would follow.

Each day became a race against the clock. I was:

• Scrambling to post on Instagram.
• Engaging in conversations on Threads.
• Uploading videos to YouTube.
• Crafting articles for LinkedIn.

The result?

• Low engagement.
• Exhaustion.
• Little to show for all the effort.

So, I made a radical decision: I pressed pause on everything except LinkedIn.

For an entire year, I focused solely on mastering that one platform.

The impact was undeniable.

• I discovered exactly where my audience hangs out and what they care about.
• I fine-tuned my messaging to resonate deeply.
• And most importantly, I created meaningful, sustainable growth.

After coaching many founders, I’ve noticed a common pattern: the same missteps that tripped me up on social media often derail businesses as well.

Many founders fall into this trap, believing that doing more will lead to better results. They:

• Launch new products before perfecting their existing ones.
• Venture into new markets without fully dominating their current space.
• Spread their efforts too thin instead of doubling down on their core strengths.

The problem isn’t the effort—it’s the direction. When energy is scattered, progress slows.

Success comes not from doing more, but from doing what truly matters with focus and intention.

When you shift your focus from “doing more” to doing what truly matters, everything changes.

How to deal with this?

Find clarity in your purpose: Identify the one thing that truly matters to your business right now—whether it’s refining a product, deepening customer relationships, or improving your operations. What is the biggest needle mover right now?

Commit fully: Stop multitasking your priorities. Dedicate 6–12 months to mastering a single, impactful area.

Embrace the feedback loop: Growth isn’t about perfection. It’s about listening, learning, and adjusting along the way. Progress comes from the small pivots you make when you’re focused and intentional.

Resist the pull of “more”: The temptation to add just one more feature, market, or initiative is real. But the more you stretch your focus, the weaker your results. Instead, focus amplifies everything.

Remember: Over-diversification dilutes your impact. Focus amplifies it.
