tl;dr There is more process than outcome, so learn to love it.

Focus Don't Fixate

Ever feel like you’re hustling relentlessly toward a business goal—only to realize you might be aiming at the wrong target? In this episode of Business as UNusual, I dive into the subtle yet crucial distinction between focusing and fixating. I go over how being overly rigid about your “how” can make you miss out on unexpected opportunities, while true focus keeps your eyes on the intention behind your goal—and empowers strategic pivots that open up entirely new pathways to success. Through relatable stories and hands-on advice, Aicila shows how simply reframing your approach can transform both your mindset and your results.

What makes this episode a must-listen is Aicila’s thoughtful guidance for recognizing your own default patterns: Are you a chronic over-preparer or someone who leaps before looking? By getting clear on your real intentions and learning to love the small, often unglamorous steps in the process, you steer clear of waiting for “perfect” circumstances—or getting lost in one-track solutions. If you’ve ever wondered how high performers keep momentum without getting stuck or burned out, this episode offers actionable insight into working smarter, letting go of what you can’t control, and building a business journey that’s both fulfilling and sustainable.
