Brief description of The Power of Focus: What the Worlds Greatest Achievers Know about The Secret of Financial Freedom and Success

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.

Comments by amazon customers about The Power of Focus: What the Worlds Greatest Achievers Know about The Secret of Financial Freedom and Success

Great read!
This book was very inspirational and informative. It does have a lot of repeat information from Jack Canfields, "the success principles" but all in all it is a great read. I recommend it to everyone looking to better their lives.


Time is money - how to choose your friends
"Time is money. This book is how to make the best use of your time for your career and financial success. I have recently "discovered" this book while sorting out my book shelf after finishing reading it several years ago, and felt it contains wonderful tips. The most useful part for me was how to choose friends, colleagues and others you communicate with. The authors argue that these people must meet three conditions: You like, trust and respect them. Even if only one of these conditions is missing, you should not continue your relationship with the person. I wondered what if I associate with a person whom I may basically like but cannot respect. The person may be lazier than I and say "You're so (too) diligent," while for you there is still a long way to reach your goal. That would make you flattered and rest on the status quo, or even something worse. That means you will lose the opportunity to make the best effort that you would have made otherwise. I really think these kinds of "noises" are invisible pollution drifting into your mind, which you want to avoid. The importance of choosing trustworthy people is more obvious. You will be confused and disappointed by their deceits or whims, and lose your valuable time and energy. My conclusion from this book is that you cannot afford to associate with people who do not meet the three basic criteria because there are so many other great people out there.

Good book, well worth the time to read it
I have always enjoyed reading stories about people who have accomplished great things and how they accomplished them. This book covers those areas and allows you to see how you could improve your thought process to accomplish greater things. Well worth the time to read this book.

Super book
I have not finished this one yet but so far its got some great ideas in this book. I needed to get back into focusing. Its been to easy to just not control what is going on in my mind. But will be for sure doing better after reading this book. Super seller. Easy and fast shipping. Great shape. Thanks Vickie

must read for a better life
this is a great book, will help you to really get your negative thoughts and your life under control. this book should be given to everyone.
