Answer 2

Focus builds up over time, It takes multiple fights to build up the meter, and it doesn't go away until you spend it.

Focus is generated in combat, by dealing damage to enemies.

Answer 3

You can also find and equip armor and accessories that speed up your focus gain, not only from doing combo attacks successfully.

If you're a low level there's a merchant in Val Royeaux that sells a Belt of Focus that gives about 3 or 5 % increased gain when worn.

If you manage to beat the Frostback Mountains Dragon in the Hinterlands (you can go there from the Dusklight Camp up North East) he can drop a Superior Belt of Focus that gives +30 % focus gained.

I've also found an armor called Ancient Elven Robes that gives a 10% extra focus from the Exalted Plains Map Dalish Camp South West from the Something to Prove quest, and you can loot it from Valorin's body. I'm only level 14 mage yet to find out if there's any weapon that gives a focus gain as well.
