Focus+and+Concentration


 * Focus and Concentration **

We live in such a fast-paced society these days that it sometimes feels like you just can't seem to focus! Here are some tips to clear your mind so you can focus your mind and concentrate on what you need to get done.

**1. Get rid of distractions! ** Yes this means your cell phone and facebook... When you are trying to focus on something make your environment one that distractions are almost impossible. You won't be as tempted to be distracted by them if they are less accessible while you are concentrating.

**2. Acknowledge when you are procrastinating ** When you don't feel like doing something or putting something off, realize and acknowledge that you are procrastinating and think about the consequences in the end. Weigh the options of getting whatever it is finished now, or later.

**3. Take Care of yourself ** Nothing is more distracting than worrying about falling asleep, being hungry, or having too much energy while trying to concentrate. Always try to get a good night's sleep, eat breakfast, and excersise throughout the day to stay energized (but not hyper) during the day to help focus.
