The book is a perfect guide to increasing and maintaining focus in a work place whether it is a corporate office or a lecture hall or your personal work desk at home or even if it is at a public place in a coffee house or dormitory... it is a fun read and short and precisely to the point.

I do a majority of my work from home and the last few weeks I have increased my workload. Scaling my business and making some extra cash being my intention. Although I have managed to scale the business I have never felt so unfocused in my life. Beginning to feel as though I had taken on too much, I come across the Fast Focus book (yes, I found this book while I was avoiding my work and scrolling through Amazon). In this case my efforts to avoid my work paid off massively. The author, Damon Zahariades goes into great detail to help you figure out what is causing you to lose focus. He then provides many techniques and tips for you to put into practise in order to overcome it. For me, this short book provided me with highly valuable information which helped me change how I use my time. Not only that but it enabled me to actually find time for myself which before, I had never done. It isn't a magical solution that no one has ever heard of. It is more like a set of practises that you can adopt to maintain focus and use your time wisely. Any self employed friends out there should definitely consider adding this book to their collection.

Fast Focus is packed with solid content that gets your mind working towards a more focused state. The author Damon lays the groundwork for better understanding what focus is at first by explaining the difference between voluntary and involuntary attention. Then we learn about broad vs. focused attention and the reasons why we lose focus in the first place. According to the author: It usually comes down to these five factors:
Lack of interest, Negative emotions, Poor organization, Low energy levels, and Lack of control.
I liked the chapter on the ten obstacles that get in our way of staying focused, such as fatigue, restlessness, and lack of clarity in our goals, to name a few. There are also 7 ways that improved focus can improve your life: Increased Productivity, Improved Relationships, Boost In Critical Thinking, more grit, and Greater Decisiveness.
There is also a brief quiz that helps you to identify if you actually have a focus problem. There are 15 statements you rate from 1 to 5. Some of the statements are:
+You work on multiple tasks or projects at the same time.
+You regularly fail to notice important details.
+You neglect to...

Une reprise sans la moindre originalité de ce que l’on peut lire sur la gestion du temps, la procrastination et d’autres thèmes similaires. Rien de ce qui est dit ne porte la moindre nouveauté. Quelques chapitres de remplissage pour ceux qui s’isolent dans les lieux publics pour travailler et rédigés avec la même pauvreté que l’ensemble de l’ouvrage. On perd son temps.
