Awesome read!

Dan writes with clarity and conviction. I thoroughly enjoyed this book because it strives to change thinking and behaviour. The best books do that.

Worth the wait

I’ve been following Dan for a few years (from long hair, the shortish hair to now no hair lol) and all I can say is… what a book. The only book I’ve read that I’ve sporadically picked up and put down again. The breaks I had reading this were where I took action in between to work on my goals and make changes to my life. It gave me the push to finally pivot on my vision. I connect with Dan’s writing style due to his personality and blunt sense of humour. We also have a lot of common interests (gym, mindfulness, digital art, freedom). It’s nice to read from Dan’s perspective as he’s forged the path and is now guiding us along the way.

I’m a digital artist/ illustrator but the whole digital art world changed with Ai. And as much as I will always love art, I no longer feel any shame for wanting to pivot and embrace having a more well rounded approach and no niche rather than being stuck with the identity of being just a digital artist and feeling stuck. I’m now a travel content creator with a blog surrounding solo female travel and mindfulness. But all of the skills and my creativity are the backbones behind my work and content creation now. I’m seeing results within the first few weeks by following Dan’s steps.

Thank you Dan for sharing your story and views. If you’re into self improvement books, you can see how Dan’s style of writing strings a lot of the greatest books together but is equally as pivotal in its own right. His writing style reminds me of Alan Watts, Dr Joe Dispensar and Joe Clear (Atomic Habits). Definitely one of the most well written and eloquent books I’ve read in a long time and it makes it to my top 5.

The Art of Focus deserves your focus!!

This was an eye-opener for how my focus game needs attention!!

I realised just how much I get distracted which is incongruent with how I want to take charge of and create my life, and this book has proved to be invaluable.

For me, this book highlights the urgency of making your change and offers guidance to help you break free of what's keeping you stuck and a way onto the path that will help create your freedom.

I've been in the self-development space for a while and I find Dan's perspective and approach refreshing - important lessons are landing differently and most importantly I am feeling driven and empowered to take charge and make change in my life.

A very worthy read/listen IMO.

You Are Your Niche

I'm not one for leaving reviews but this was so compelling, I felt I had no choice.

The information contained herein is essentially a blueprint to self-transformation, setting one up for success in all the key aspects of life e.g. financially, physically, and spiritually.

While there's a consistent theme of mindset throughout, the 1st part of the book gave practical insights into how one can channel the 'art of focus'. The 2nd part explains how one can essentially create in their own blue ocean for success through tapping into their uniqueness which eliminates the possibility of being copied (A Niche Of One).

The structure is impeccable, the flow is seamless, and the practical insights are timeless.

This book is for EVERYBODY because we are all citizens of the Internet. Most will not follow up with the practical instructions within because although they're simple, they are NOT easy. I'm excited for the future of those that do whilst also being excited to realise my own potential. And that's impact!

Magnificent

I just finished reading The Art of Focus by Dan Koe and I have to say, it was an amazing journey. This book is a practical philosophy that will help you find meaning, reinvent yourself, and create your ideal future.

It’s a painful journey, but one that’s worth taking. You’ll learn how to separate action from distraction, meaning from meaningless, and success from failure. You’ll discover how to conduct your own adventure and stop hurtling toward the dead end that society has assigned to you. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to break out of the rut of regular thinking and embark on their own path in life.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Dan's narration elevates this work to a new level

I bought this audiobook version of The Art of Focus as a Whispersync companion to the Kindle version, which I've never done before. Dan's proclamation that this book is designed to be cyclical as life is, is what prompted me to listen to his narration of the book for potentially different perspectives and results.

Dan's unique blend of philosophy, spirituality, and awareness to his entrepreneurial one-person business ideas shine through in his narration. A great sense of conviction, wisdom and calmness wash over you as you listen to his timeless insights. A book about focus in the modern world wouldn't be complete without an understanding of the author's unique emotional and spiritual connections to their ideas, and that is what elevates this narration to be even greater than reading his book, in my opinion.

As Dan states in his book, taking action on the insights is the key to achieving a fulfilled and focussed life. The chapter that helped me appreciate this most was Chapter 5: The Game. As a former gamer who spent thousands of hours on various RPGs, I could relate to Dan's anecdote and how he then used these learnings to play the game of life. Instead of playing by the rules prescribed by society, using imagination can allow you to create a new game within the framework of life that will let you succeed in playing by the rules you created.

There are so many such insights in every second of the audiobook that it is difficult to summarise them all in a review. However, I would highly recommend the book in its audio form for Dan's excellent and engaging narration.
