Synopsis

The Power of Concentration is a manifesto by William Walker Atkinson, originally published under the pseudonym Theron Q. Dumont. In this exploration of the powerful benefits of concentration, Atkinson posits that utilizing the power of concentration is how humans can unlock greater accomplishments. Atkinson asserts that by focusing all mental energy on the task at hand, humans are able to attract success into their lives.
This book breaks down the keys to successful concentration into 20 simple lessons, easy enough for anyone to follow and adopt in their own lives. Sample steps include “How to Gain What You Want Through Concentration,” “Concentrate So You Will Not Forget,” “Concentration Can Overcome Bad Habits,” and The Silent Force that Produces Results in All Business.”
Atkinson’s astute analysis on the power of concentration is a must-read for anyone looking to learn how focusing energy and thoughts on success will eventually turn into tangible success. Despite it being published decades ago, this book is perfect for modern business leaders and entrepreneurs looking to attract success.
