Why You Can't FOCUS - And How To Fix That

To improve focus 1. Avoid distractions 2. Sleep 7-9 hrs 3. Keep Hydrated 4. Eat Healthy 5. Exercise To build focus 1. Do a task in the morning 2. Recharge your brain (nap, walk, etc.) Pomodoro Technique 1. Do a task without distractions in a period of time (i.e. 20mins, 30mins) 2. After that take a break for a period of time (shorter than task mode) 3. Repeat it for 4-5 times (Task->break->task...) 4. Then take a break longer than task mode. 5. Back again if you want more. Remember: Focus is like a muscle it need train, recovery and care.

As a BONUS TIP, I would like to recommend: Setting an alarm for 60-90 minutes before your designated sleep time to create a "Pre-Sleep Ritual" where you disconnect from all your tech devices (no screen time and set phone on flight mode, and dim the house lights). Do things like brush your teeth, organise your desk, wash dishes, journal down your ideas (download your day onto paper), read your book. That way you will program your mind to calm down with sufficient timing which will allow you to have a higher quality sleep and you will feel incredible and super focused the next day. When you wake up, implement a similar (tech free) Post-Sleep Ritual to start your morning fresh without bombarding your mind with the outside World's distractions wasting your attention units. Keep those habits implemented long enough and there will be no limit to what you can achieve with your new found hyper focus! I hope this serves you well and if you've read this far, I wish you all the best on your journey of personal development and sending much love from Western Australia :)

I've found that avoiding checking a mobile phone first thing in the A.M. and doing another task first like writing, cooking or getting ready helps you focus better and think clearer during the day.

i've always hated the pomodoro thing, because every single video i watch about it tells me to set up a timer, but i eventually check the timer every minute because of anxiety and when the time was getting closer to the end, I couldn't focus on anything but the clock. So I tried something different: when I'm studying, I set the goals for each book chapter, videoclass or question set. I am more likely to study from videos, so I focus my time in one 30 min video or something about that, than take my water break. I breath deeply through my window looking at the sky, play with my dog, eat a fruit or anything, then go back to my desk. I found I work better without time settings and adapted this to my routine.

The 52/17 rule changed how I worked. It's 52 minutes of working with full attention. After, you get a 17 minute break. This seems a bit odd, but the 52 minutes allows me to enter the flow state with ease. I highly recommend it!

Mom comes in while I really want to do work Mom: "Do your work." Me: Not wanting to do my work anymore

"And I know you're procrastinating at this very moment by watching this video." Me: HOW DID HE KNOW

I’ve been watching these videos while doing my workouts instead of listening to music and I gotta say, it’s definitely been a tool for pushing me to be the best version of myself. Hope all of you receive the advice in this video to the full extent 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

I’m having trouble even focusing on the video…

Your videos are not only mere videos, they are gems in disguise. I learn new things from your content everytime and try to implement them in my life. You explain it so simply that I find it easy to follow, not all but at least some of them. I'm so grateful.

Speaking from my own experience, Exercising is the root cause of staying focused. How? Well, I couldn't sleep at night before which had a result of being tired throughout the day cause of sleeping less than 7 hours. So how exactly I can sleep now is because of exercise that makes me feel sleepy and get me proper 7-8 hours of sleep which ultimately helped me to stay focused throughout the day. And honestly, UNHEALTHY FOOD DOES MAKE YOU FEEL SLEEPY!! Trust me or not, Try having junk food for a day then try to focus and have healthy food the other day and then focus, You will notice the difference by yourself. I hope y'all decide what's best for you. All the best peeps.
