Teaches the importance of concentration for business and personal success,
By
This review is from: The Power of Concentration (Paperback)
You all know times when you've thought of a great idea that you abandoned after you allowed negative thoughts to tear it to shreds. Or perhaps you began an important task but didn't complete it because you just couldn't keep focused. Maybe you've found it difficult succeeding in business or advancing in your career because of indecision, timidity, or lack of mental poise.
Dumont writes that the three reasons you cannot concentrate are 1) Deficiency of the motor centers; 2) An impulsive and emotional mind; and 3) An untrained mind. He teaches why concentration is so important and provides several exercises in improving concentration and will power. "Success is assured when you are able to concentrate for you are then able to utilize for your good all constructive thoughts and shut out all destructive ones. It is of the greatest value to be able to think only that which will be beneficial." The chapters are: 1. Concentration Finds the Way 2. The Self-Mastery: Self-Directing Power of Concentration 3. How to Gain what You Want through Concentration 4. Concentration: The Silent Force that Produces Results in All Business 5. How Concentrated Thought Links All Humanity Together 6. The Training of the Will to Do 7. The Concentrated Mental Demand 8. Concentration Gives Mental Poise 9. Concentration Can Overcome Bad Habits 10. Business Results Gained through Concentration 11. Concentrate on Courage 12. Concentrate on Wealth 13. You Can Concentrate, But Will You? 14. Art of Concentrating with Practical Exercise 15. Concentrate So You Will Not Forget 16. How Concentration Can Fulfill Your Desire 17. Ideals Develop by Concentration 18. Mental Control Through Concentration 19. Concentrated Will Development 20. Concentration Reviewed
