how to improve focus and concentration
Some experts researching this area suggest the Pomodoro technique for effective task accomplishment. This method teaches you how to focus on one thing at a time and then go to the next task.
For example: Assume as a student of Science at high school, you have to revise three subjects — Physics, Chemistry, and Math before an exam the next day; you can adopt the Pomodoro technique in the following manner…
- take up one subject first, say Physics, and revise for 25 minutes
- Next, take a short break – give-in to your distractions/ rest/plan the next move
- Then take up the next subject, say Chemistry, and revise for the next 25 minutes
- Take another short break
- Finally, revise the last subject for the next 25 minutes
Plan what you need to revise in the allotted 25 minutes and try to complete that plan within the time slot.
This way, you can focus and concentrate on all the tasks you need to complete taking just a short period to achieve more results.
