I'm the person this book was written for, and boy am I glad I read it! I'd always assumed my problem was a lack of energy or just an inherent laziness, but what I've learned from this book is that the real reason why I seem to keep running in the hamster wheel and not getting anything done is due to a lack of proper focus. This book really breaks down the concept, importance and application of focus so you can make results happen in your life. Incorporating quotations and analysis of great masters of focus in sports, business, and statesmanship, you really get a firm understanding of how to create and maintain focus in order to get the results you want in life. I especially loved how Mr. Finlayson breaks down the concept of belief and more specifically how creating beliefs based on negative past events can cripple your future progress. The past is not the future unless you make it so. I also loved the hands on exercises in including setting up your own action plan so that you could take principles and turn them into concrete action. In short, this book has a wealth of wonderful insight into how to focus properly and use that focus to get what you want out of life. Great book!
