Easy-to-follow guide on improving your results

I would describe the book as a practical guide to implementing the wisdom in Steven Covey's book on the 7 Habits of highly successful people.

[Abdelrahman Alaa]

Overall not bad, the writer is too repetitive, and there's lots of redundant chapters that you can skip.

[Ruta Lēmane]

As a person who zones out all the time and procrastinates a lot instead of doing the actual job, this book came at the right time.

Besides the tips that author gives throughout the book, I really liked the practical part at the end of the book which helped me to understand myself better, where I could write down my current problems and reasons why I struggle with discipline, and what should I do to implement better habits.

I think this is a great read for anybody who struggles with discipline, focusing and procrastination.

[Julia]

Helpful and Susinct

If you need help setting and staying focused on goals that mean a lot to you then this book will help. It breaks everything down you need into lists and self-examination questions.
It moves beyond the personal productivity book though and stays focused on real and meaningful priorities and doesn’t promise you’ll be a millionaire or anything silly like that.
I enjoyed it and learned a few things along the way.

[Cassie Journigan]

A huge help for the monkey mind

This book is great for you if you have major goals you don't accomplish. Thibaut Meurisse provides a step-by-step process through explanations and exercises to help you gain the life you want to lead. I highly recommend reading it and working through the exercises if you have or need a grand vision for your life but aren't actually moving in that direction.

[Jessica]

I’ve only given one or two other books one star before, so that should tell you how terrible this was. I don’t need to bash it to death, but if you want to read about focus or other areas of self-improvement, look for a book that’s not self-published.

[Reading_ Tamishly]

This book is quite helpful in making me refocus in this real distracting world. My second most favourite from the series.

[Praveen]

Practical tool.

Quick read. Helps to put fundamentals of vision, focus, and concentration in perspective.

Ideal for students, young professionals, and anyone wanting to have clarity of thought and set oneself aligned to your innate desires and wants.

Preaches the importance of limited time, hence limited goals and suggests to use all the focus and attention to those key aspects.

[Jad Demetria]

Main book for focus

The author is full of wisdom and it seems he used to be in my place struggling with focus and jumping from one goal to another. That he knew all the answers to the questions I’m seeking.
What I like is that it consists of straight to the point tools to be used to FOCUS, and truly it is applicable the first time I started reading it. I was able to finish the book in 7 days with the application of what I have learned.
What I do not like is that the examples used, especially of notable personalities sounds like heresy. But not to mind the way it was presented, it could be useful and serve as an inspiration.
Overall I enjoyed the book, and look forward to use all the techniques I learned. It gave me the motivation and momentum to move forward finish my projects leading to my goal, one task at a time.
Thank you Thibaut.

[Farzad]

One of the best books on the subject of focusing

I downloaded this book not expecting too much but a quick read on improving focus. I was so wrong, I found out this book is one of the best and most comprehensive book on the subject. The author was talking to me with his examples, it's like he knows me for years. I highly recommend this book to anyone whose interested to improve power of focus in his/her life.

[Joey Sankows]

So Much Helpful Info and So Much Simplicity!

What I loved most about this book is it’s simplicity in explaining such insightful and valuable information. I also love the way Thibaut values how much his readers get out of this book by creating an action workbook to further crystallize the information in it! I definitely plan to recommend this book to my business partner, and watch our business accelerate in the direction we want it to go. Now on to Master Your Emotions!

[Juan Manuel Vera]

Very useful and delightful

I really enjoy reading this book . It's plenty of good advises and actions to do for improving your performance and goal achievement.

Thibaut!is a great writer, his superpower is to do very easy to understand any complex concept and did it doable

I do recommend read this book and his entire collection "Master"

[Rick Yvanovich]

I can't seem to stop reading books on this topic which is a bit of an oxymoron given whats the point of doing so if they repeat the same thing again and again.

I guess that's why I read them to see if the next one has the silver bullet to focus on!

[Dan]

This book coupled with Atomic Habits by James Clear is the ultimate power couple. They provide who with a road map of getting what you want.

Both are now permanent companions for me that sit on my bookshelf.

[ALCIDES RONDON]

Practical tips and techniques to master your focus.
Actionable tips to overcoming procrastination

[Girlinthebooks]

O czym przeczytasz w tej popularnonaukowej perełce będącej odpowiedzią na jedną z bolączek współczesnego dynamicznego świata jakim jest rozproszenie i przebodźcowanie?

- Jakie są rodzaje skupienia i jak je osiągnąć?
- Dlaczego warto zidentyfikować swoje mocne i słabe strony?
- Jakie są techniki pomagające skutecznie planować swoje działania?
- Jak wdrożyć w życie strategie, które umożliwiają koncentrację?
- Czy rozpoczynanie kilku projektów na raz jest efektywniejsze niż koncentracja na jednym z nich?
- Jak wyznaczać priorytety skuteczniej?

Autor sprawnie łączy teoretyczne zagadnienia dotyczące ludzkich zachowań i paradoksów z rzeczywistymi przykładami, w których każdy z czytelników odnajdzie cząstkę siebie.

Po każdym rozdziale autor przekazuje kilka z pozoru prostych kroków, których wykonanie zajmuje niewiele czasu a pozwalać punkt po punkcie zwiększyć koncentrację w ciągu dnia. Ten praktyczny aspekt zamieszczony w takiej ilości to duży plus tego poradnika.

Bardzo doceniam, że autor w tej książce zachowuje neutralność w przedstawianiu treści. Nie narzuca swojego stylu ani nie potępia zachowań, które nie pasują do głównego przekazu. Porady są przedstawiane w sposób opiekuńczy, a nie pouczający, co sprawia, że podejście do dzielenia się cennymi lekcjami i wskazówkami jest bardzo zdrowe.

Ta książka jest dla zwolenników dobrych i konkretnych poradników, które zostawiają czytelnika z dużą ilością praktycznych ćwiczeń i zadań wspomagających wdrożenie tego o czym czytamy w życie codzienne. Jest to wysokiej jakości popularnonaukowa lektura, polecam!

Have you experienced that level of focus when time slows down❓

Focus is very important in everyone’s life. Without good focus, all aspects of your ability to think suffers. Being focused on one thing for a certain period allows you to do a better quality of work and your creative ideas flow easier. But, we find ourselves easily distracted and unable to focus on the task at hand.

Need help staying focused ❓

This book helps you in understanding why it’s hard to focus on one thing for long and how to stay focused and obtain results you want.

📖 You’ll mainly learn:

▪️Why focus is important and it’s different types.
▪️How to gain clarity about your goals and creating a long-term vision.
▪️How to make an effective plan to get desired results.
▪️Steps to develop ruthless focus that allow you to accomplish more in less time.
▪️Developing a mastery mindset.
▪️Steps to overcome procrastination.

The book is an another masterpiece by the author that helps you in becoming focused on whatever task you do. Various exercises are given in the last pages of the book to practice the concepts taught in each section.

[Annie]

This book covers the key points well:
* Focus Is More Valuable Than Raw Effort: Do less, but better.
* Avoid “Shiny Object Syndrome”: Stick with priorities long enough to achieve mastery and measurable outcomes.
* Eliminate Distractions: Technology, multitasking, notifications, and clutter weaken attention.
* Clarity Creates Focus: People lose focus when they lack clear priorities.
* Focus Is a Trainable Skill: Repeated practice improves endurance.

The low rating is because the author repeats some advice given by other authors, like Deep Work by Cal Newport, Essentialism by Greg McKeown, and Atomic Habits by James Clear.
