About this listen
If you're looking to improve your concentration and focus, then this audiobook is for you! Most people today have the attention span and focus of a hyper-caffeinated squirrel chomping down on methamphetamines like Tic Tacs. We hop from unfinished project to unfinished project, flit around piled-up work by giving in to accessible diversions at the drop of a hat, and so on and so forth - until we're left with ever-increasing piles of work and ignored responsibilities and basically as much control over our minds as a junkie going through withdrawal.
But instead of playing slave to our minds, we can wrest back that lost control through a series of simple tips and everyday exercises. After all, curiosity is an excellent trait - in moderation - and if we bend our minds to our will, instead of the other way around, we can amp up productivity, focus, etc., while achieving a calmer mental state. And that is the purpose of this audiobook!
So, are you ready to delve into these secrets, new and old, and gain control back over your mind from these never-ending distractions?
Here is a preview of what you'll learn:
- Practicing mindfulness and stillness
- Breathing exercises
- The effects of memory games
- Dexterity exercises
- Focusing on your own body
- Self-policing
- Helpful daily routines
- Much, much more!

Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

I have discovered a group of women who refuse to be exploited, are immune to manipulation, and who never settle in the name of love. These ladies know what they want and take what they want by beating men at their own game. Utilizing the secrets exposed in this book, these women gain power, money, and status. Men call them gold diggers, women call them hos, but they call themselves winners. This is the book that society doesn't want you to listen to….

Loved it. Listened several times.
It was a perfect amount of detail to provide context and understanding that accentuated the usefulness of the tips. More than just a list, and you didn't have to wade through useless information to get to the meat. I have listened to it several times.

Really helpful tips for postpartum
I am a new mother and have been struggling with focus and concentration since I became pregnant. To a lesser degree I have always struggled with concentration. This has led to anxiety and inability to get important tasks done like meeting deadlines. These techniques are accessible, easy to understand and implement right away. I don't usually like self help books but this one offers a simple recipe that I can get behind and stick to without overhauling my entire life.
