In Concentration, Psychologist and journalist Daniel Goleman, author of the #1 international best-seller Emotional Cleverness, offers a groundbreaking look at today's scarcest resource and the trick to powerful and fulfillment: attention. Incorporating cutting-edge research with practical findings, Concentration delves into the technology of attention in every its varieties, showing a long overdue discussion of this little-noticed and under-rated mental asset. In an age of unstoppable distractions, Goleman persuasively argues that now more than ever we must learn to sharpen target if we are to make it through in a sophisticated world. Goleman comes down attention research into a threesome: interior, other, and exterior focus. Sketching on rich circumstance studies from fields as diverse as competitive sports, education, the arts, and business, he shows why high-achievers need all three types of target, and clarifies how those who rely on smart methods - mindfulness yoga, focused preparation and recovery, positive feelings and connections, and mental "prosthetics" that help them improve practices, add new skills, and preserve greatness - excel while others do not.
