I Want to Concentrate: Improve Focus and Achieve More

by Harriet Griffey

To be able to concentrate is the key to better focus and achieving more, but in our 24/7 constantly switched-on environment, it's not always easy. A relentless barrage of external interruptions, combined with internal preoccupations, can make it increasingly difficult to concentrate.

In I Want to Concentrate , Harriet Griffey examines why it's important and what gets in the way of our concentration, while offering practical information, pointers and ideas on how to regain control over the chattering monkeys in our heads and our lives.  If you want to concentrate better and benefit from its positive affect on your work and personal life, I Want to Concentrate will help you get back into the habit, improving relationships and reducing stress along the way.

"نحن ما نكرر فعله إذا التفوق ليس فعلا بل عادة".
"القلق يسحب غيمة الغد لتحجب شمس اليوم المشرقة".

I didn't realise the author was a magazine journalist until after I bought the book. It shows. Very short and felt like reading a series of short articles. For me, it seemed to be flitting around all over the place and didn't go into much depth, but I think for some people who lack concentration maybe this style of writing might suit them. The content was fine in itself - a basic summary of other people's work - but the style wasn't for me.

A guide to improving your level of concentration.

Some of the proverbs / comments were interesting, but the majority felt like repeats of what I'd seen in other places and the book didn't have a strong central theme.

Overall rating 2.5.

The design of the book is really awesome, it's nicely out together and there's some good writing stuff but it's a little bit repetitive to get a fourth star. Still, quick feel good read with good advice and info.

[Devon Miller · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a quick and easy read and provides a lot of useful info on things you can do to concentrate better and increase the time you can concentrate on something. 4 stars because there are a couple typos, otherwise quite a helpful read!

سعره 5.600 ريال عماني و هو مكوّن من 139 ورقة ثلاثة أرباعها فارِغة أو بها رسومات و المقالات المكتوبة كلّها تحمل أفكار مكررة بمعنى أن الكتاب كامل المفترض أن يختصر في مقال !
