Publisher: HCI; 10 Rev Anv edition (March 6, 2012)

The revised special 10th Anniversary Edition of the highly influential The Power of Focus packs enough power to permit anyone to pluck out a proven effective plan that will overcome any obstacle. That’s quite a statement to make, but more than 600,000 people around the world have been captivated by the simple, practical, and profound strategies contained in the original bestseller. Now a decade later, authors Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen, and Les Hewitt have joined forces to update this enduring classic in a magnificent way that’s relevant to today.

The front and back covers are mere handles that envelope a tool of great power. The book guides you through action plans that are isolated into 11 highly detailed chapters that focus with laser-like intensity on the specific steps to take to achieve your goals, and the authors provide fill-in-the-blank pages for you to tailor the plans to fit your specific circumstances. Accompanying each chapter are eloquent real life testimonies from people that encountered the same difficulties as you, but overcame the challenges with these proven effective measures. Fill your sails with new wind, chart a new course to follow, and unearth the inspiration you need to persevere no matter what the problem. Your success is assured.

Readers cannot complete the book without becoming galvanized into forceful action. You are promised that achievement looms just ahead, but beware—readers usually find their outlook transformed into one of expectancy, as if their victory over difficulties and triumph over adversity floats toward them like a message in a bottle tossed in a turbulent sea yet coming straight at them. That transformation from despondency to expectancy is the golden nugget at the core of the book. Dig in and find yours.

Plan on spending many days joyfully dissecting these areas on which you will desire to concentrate, as you climb the ladder toward your objective:

• Your habits will determine your future

• It’s not hocus-pocus, it’s all about focus, so build on your strengths, not weakness

• Design your future by seeing the big picture

• Overcoming setbacks

• Building relationships with core clients and great mentors

• Eliminating fear, forgiving, and using a winning attitude to get out of a slump

• How to ask for what you want

• Using consistent persistence to get to your goal

• Overcoming procrastination with decisive action

• Pinpointing your purpose

• Ideas that will enrich your journey

Do not study this guide if you are unwilling to improve or change, but if you hate despair, hard times, or failure and refuse to let circumstances get you down, The Power of Focus will push you onto a fast track to success.
