Focal Point
by Brian Tracy
Tracy's system for the seven areas of life: clarify values, vision and goals in each, identify the few activities that produce the most results, and simplify by eliminating the rest. It is conventional goal-setting with Tracy's directness, and the exercise of defining a focal point in each area is worthwhile.
Read it if…
you want a structured goal-setting process across all areas of life.
Skip it if…
you have read other Tracy books; the content recurs.
Three things you will actually use
- Clarity precedes effectiveness.
- Twenty percent of activities produce eighty percent of results.
- Simplify: stop doing what does not matter.
Do this first
Write one goal and one key activity for each of the seven areas.
Our verdict
Conventional and structured.
