    Nov 4 2025

    Welcome to Beachside Chats, where business strategy meets innovation, and every conversation is a step toward unlocking your full potential. I'm your host, Stephen Webster - strategic growth coach and performance enthusiast. Whether you're a CEO, entrepreneur, or simply someone driven to grow, this is the place for actionable insights and fresh perspectives to help you get 1% better every day. Today, we'll be diving into Cut the Cognitive Drag – How to Free Your Team’s Focus, so let's dive in.

    Key Takeaways:

    1. Get ruthless clarity on your top 3 priorities — not 5, not 7. Just 3.
    2. Assign one accountable owner per outcome. Committees don’t execute — people do.
    3. Establish a weekly rhythm that reinforces focus instead of creating distractions.
    4. Build systems that simplify. Eliminate rework, remove ambiguity, and reduce noise.

    Quote of the Day:

    “Clarity is the elimination of noise.” — Naval Ravikant

    Today’s Oyster Shot:

    “Your team doesn’t need more motivation — they need mental margin. This week, remove one recurring meeting, clarify one priority, and name one true owner. Momentum starts when drag stops.”
