Focus on concentration - Harvard Health

We all tend, to a different degree, to lose our focus once in a while. However, when this becomes a habit, we should contact a doctor, as it can occur due to serious underlying conditions, such as depression. The good news is that there have been identified some steps that can help one improve the ability to concentrate.

In order to train your focus, check out the below useful tips:

• keep track of the moments when you tend to lose your attention so you can plan activities for those very moments that require less focus
• practice meditation so you can guide your mind back to the initial activity
• control the distractions around you, in order to be able to better concentrate
• work for shorter periods of time, while making sure you stay focus throughout those periods
