"Busy implies activity, but not necessarily accomplishment." – Jones Loflin

Today’s featured #1 best-selling author is a father, husband, internationally recognized keynote speaker, coach, trainer, and beekeeper, Jones Loflin. Jones and I had a fun on a bun chat about his book that he co-authored with his daughter, “Focused As A Bee: Six Buzzworthy Strategies To Thrive In A Distracting World”, the importance of intentional rest, the value of learning from setbacks, and more!

What helped Jones to gain the confidence to create his own content and write his book "Juggling Elephants"

What keeps him energized after 29 years of business
