The Focus Paradox: Doing Less to Outperform 97% of Overworked High-Achievers: How Strategic Restraint, Selective Attention, and Purposeful Omission Cr

By Chester Cain and JV SETH

If you're an overworked high performer drowning in busyness yet starving for impact, this book is your lifeline.

You're not lazy. You're not failing. You're overcommitted to the wrong things.
In a world that rewards "yes," your greatest act of courage-and your sharpest competitive edge-is a clear, calm no.

The Focus Paradox reveals why the most effective people don't outwork everyone else-they out-select them. Through strategic restraint, selective attention, and purposeful omission, they create disproportionate results in work, wealth, and life-while working less, not more.

Inside, you'll discover:
- Why attention-not time-is your truest form of wealth (and how to protect it like a vault)
- The 3% Rule: how a tiny set of decisions compounds into legacy-level outcomes
- How to escape the Overachiever's Trap-where competence becomes captivity
- The Portfolio of No: a revolutionary framework to curate not just your investments, but your entire life
- Real rituals that transform focus from a fleeting state into a daily architecture of freedom

Blending neuroscience, behavioral economics, Stoic wisdom, and real-world case studies, this book is more than a productivity guide-it's a manifesto for the quiet rebellion: choosing depth in an age of distraction.

For executives, entrepreneurs, creatives, and purpose-driven parents who've mastered achievement but lost their peace-this is your invitation to do less, matter more, and finally thrive.

Because true success isn't measured in hustle-it's measured in what you have the courage to leave out.

"In a world shouting 'more, ' your whisper of 'enough' may be the most revolutionary sound."
