Unfortunately there is a very good reason why when you are an employee your boss makes you focus on what is important to the business because a business needs a goal.

So lesson here is always value your time and invest it wisely into which opportunities you would like to persue, make sure they fit into both your short and long term goals. After all the secret to business is the ability to leverage your existing relationships and successes.
