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.

FOCUSING STRATEGY #1 Your Habits Will Determine Your Future ?It?s so
hard when contemplated in advance, and so easy when you do it.? and
we need to be specific when identifying those that affect what we
achieve. We need to replace disempowering ones with empowering ones.
Even if you were unfortunate enough to have a severely disadvantaged
background, you can still make changes. And it may only take one
person to help you make the transition. An excellent coach, teacher,
therapist, mentor or positive role model can dramatically impact
your future. The only prerequisite is that you must commit to
change. When you are ready to do so, the right people will start
showing up to help you. In our experience, that well-known saying,
"When the pupil is ready the teacher appears," is true. Back To Top
