The importance of achieving focus goes well beyond your own productivity.

Deep focus allows you to lead others successfully, find clarity amid uncertainty, and heighten your sense of professional fulfillment.

This volume includes the work of Daniel Goleman

Heidi Grant, Amy Jen Su, and Rasmus Hougaard.

Great pearls in this book

I am going to try the techniques in this book. I think it is useful to stay focused.

Note to self technique: think where you will be 5 years from now if everything will work out perfectly as you plan :)
