If you stay focused, you can do many things. But many things isn't always constructive to your life. One of your major responsibilities as a leader is determining what is best for yourself according to your life's purpose and assignment. You can be distracted and unfocused by something that is "good" even easier than something evil. Satan doesn't care how you lose focus, just that you do.
For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in ADVANCE for us to do.
~~Ephesians 2:10
From that time Jesus began to show to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day.
Then Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, “Far be it from You, Lord; this shall not happen to You!”
But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are an offense to Me, for you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men.” ~~Matthew 16:21-23
