Book
Description
Whether they are corporate
professionals, budding entrepreneurs, or they own a home
business, most people are looking to achieve more in less time,
while earning enough money to live comfortably.
This book
reveals the proven techniques thousands of people have used to
attain all of the money they wanted while living healthy, happy
and balanced lives.
The Power of
Focus, the new blockbuster from the coauthors of the bestselling
Chicken Soup for the Soul, is a practical no-nonsense guide that
shows readers how to reach their business, personal and
financial goals without getting burned out in the process.
Canfield, Hansen, and Hewitt have taken the best ideas
from their own successful careers (seventy-nine years of
combined business expertise), and distilled them into ten
powerful focusing principles.
The result is a treasury of insights that is enjoyable to
read and easy to understand. At the outset, the book identifies
the three most important fundamentals for consistent success:
developing unusual clarity; understanding that habits determine
your future; and using a "no exceptions policy"
approach to focus on what you want. Numerous anecdotes and
inspiring stories help to reinforce each principle.
This is a must-read for business people, sales managers,
entrepreneurs, and anyone who is serious about improving their
personal awareness.
If you enjoyed books like The
Power of Positive Thinking, The Millionaire Next Door, or The
Four Agreements you are almost certain to like this book by
the creators of Chicken Soup for the Soul.
The authors use real-life
examples, motivational tools, and tried-and-true business
principles to make their points. I particularly liked the
"flow charts" at the end of each chapter that helped
to capture the overall message and encourage the reader's
progress.
Not having read any of the Chicken
Soup books may have been to my advantage as I did not tire of
the writers' style or lessons.
An easy read full of good
practical and business advice.
