Focal points are what draws your eye.
They should be positive.
When the buyer arrives at your home the front door should draw their eye. This can be a challenge when the garage is prominent. 
You need to lead the buyer past the garage to the front door. This can be accomplished by setting out garden beds or planters that lead the buyer. It can also help to paint the front door a more dominant color.
If there is a fireplace in the room it should be your focal point.
Don't hide it behind your possessions. The fireplace should be the feature that impresses the buyer not the size of your TV.
In a bedroom the bed is the focal point of the room. 
If possible it should be across the room.
The bed should have a hotel/magazine look - inviting.
The dining table should help the buyer imagine entertaining here.
This is especially important when the dining area is part of the kitchen.
Use your focal points to show off how great it would be to live in your home.
During your Staging consult your Stager will help you create focal points that show off the positives of your home.
