"Rapt: Attention or the focused life" by Winifred Gallagher (2011)
, 4 Oct 2014
Your life is a result of what you focus on and pay attention to. Your
energy goes where your attention is. That is it! That is what this
non-fiction book says. If you focus on love you get love, if you focus
on work you get your work done and succeed at what you do at work, if
you focus on a new project, invention, research or artistic project you
will get there. And on and on and on, chapter after chapter saying the
same, giving plenty of examples and blah blah blah just in case your
brain is so small and damaged that you are not able to understand such a
simple concept.
Do
you really need to be reminded that your life is a result of what you
focus on and that you need to focus on what you want to achieve to
achieve it? Yes? Then, run and grab this book. No? Save your monies and
purchase another one.
Can anybody explain to me
why the book has got so many good reviews? Who on earth decided that what could have been
an interesting article needed to become a wordy book?
A book full of hyper-focused platitude. Focus on another one!
