[Jery Schober · Rating 4 out of 5]

Pleasant style, makes me curious for the whole book.

[Naveen N. Bhat · Rating 4 out of 5]

Rebranded version of the age old mantra of focus and mindfulness instead of letting your thoughts and attention wander. 'Attention Management' sounds more catchy, I'll give her that. Well, whatever gets your attention, I guess.

Missed Opportunity

Paraphrasing the best advice from the book: change habits must be a want and you should believe it will serve you.

I gave this book a 2 star because it’s just a promo for the publisher version (paid). There was a missed opportunity when the writer mentioned setting up for success but gives you no suggestion on how to start or where to begin.

The book defined what Attention Management is but gave so little to draw in the reader to the actual book.
