About this listen

Look around.

We are on the brink of catastrophe.

A dystopia of excessive pleasure, comfort, and a false sense of security as to how successful you will be is no longer just a relatable movie scene.

Since birth, you were spoon-fed ideas, beliefs, and routines that program you into the same default path as everyone else. This leads to the same quality of life as everyone else.

It’s no wonder why most people feel anxious, overwhelmed, and have a cloud of meaninglessness hovering over their heads at all times.

Focus is the cure.

But not the narrow focus we associate with deep work and study.

Focus is what separates action from distraction, meaning from meaningless, and success from failure.

Focus is how you conduct your own adventure to stop hurling toward the dead end that was assigned to you by society for their benefit.

This will be a painful journey to find meaning, reinvent yourself, and create your ideal future.

The only thing more painful than seeing what you are capable of is not seeing what you are capable of, and I can’t think of anything more worthwhile to dedicate your life to.

This book is presents brilliant, thoughtful and unique lessons on focus, illustrating philosophy through examples and stimulating ideas. The concepts Dan presents are accessible to anyone and his prose is beautiful. Also, he’s very clear with a fantastic tone - it’s a pleasure to listen to and deeply insightful.
One of my favourite quotes from chapter two:
‘Your hierarchy of goals from top down, ideal future to present action, will frame your focus in an in-distractible manner. When you create and maintain this fickle mental clarity, you begin to flow with the cyclical nature of the universe. This is what keeps life meaningful, interesting and fulfilling’.

Dan’s unique take on focus makes this impossible to put down

I'm a recent Dan Koe convert and by recent I mean I stumbled on a YT one day a month ago and have been devouring the backlog content ever since.

Including immediately purchasing this book!

Dan Koe is practical, thoughtful, to the point and non-subscriptive.

While occasionally he could use some more tone to keep me awake while talking (sorry Dan!) the content and way he thinks about the world will lead you to change your habits and give you a clear guide on how to achieve those goals

Recommend.

Not just another self help book....
