The skill of concentration
1. If you are not interested in the work or study to be completed, you can set a "deadline effect". People do things most efficiently at the beginning and at the end. There will be a phenomenon of inefficiency and inattention between the two, which is called "middle slack" in psychology. In order to keep your attention, you can set up a middle stop like a marathon runner and give full play to it. The stopover time should not be too long or too short, otherwise it will be counterproductive.
2. Use the reward and punishment mechanism. Dividing the heavy work into several sections and giving rewards to the external engine to achieve the goal between each section will help to improve the attention. Sometimes, punishment can get good results. For example, suppose a powerful opponent, you need to constantly encourage yourself to beat this opponent. In high school, when I was in adolescence, I often encountered inexplicable troubles and thought about boring problems, so that I could not concentrate on my studies. To improve this situation, we can take an excellent classmate in our class as an opponent.
3. The abstract focus helps to concentrate. When Mr Takemi Taro of Japan was a student, he often finished the textbook before the professor. However, he read the original works in different ways and chose to read with fewer pages. After reading a book thoroughly, he must sort out and summarize the problems and key points in the book and extract the essence, so his reading efficiency is quite high.
4. Use positive self-suggestion. Always holding an optimistic view is an indispensable element to eliminate distractions and concentrate. I believe tomorrow will be good, even if I am depressed and unlucky.
Get into the habit of watching small things every day, which is the so-called "staring method". Pay attention to stare at a point with momentum to overcome the immediate effect. With the gaze, consciousness will gradually shrink to a narrow range, making the spirit condensed and high. First, choose a small thing around you, such as a pen or an eraser. Once you get bored, close your eyes immediately and recall what you just saw in your mind. Describe it from three aspects. Change another one when it's over. This method can be trained anytime and anywhere.
6, in the face of annoying things to guide slowly. One of the biggest causes of inattention is lack of desire. There is a typical example. There is a person who is not interested in English at all, and he has a headache when he sees it. The teacher gave him advice; In the first month, spend 5 minutes every day to open the textbook, that is, don't read or write. Then the next month, I spent 10 minutes every day copying English from the book into my notebook. Then spend 20 minutes every day for a month and read the text carefully. During this period, he was not forced to attend classes, just as he wished. As a result, he gradually became sentimental about other students and finally got the first place in English in the school.
7. Set the alarm clock to a limited time in advance. Make a plan in advance, then set the alarm clock to the specified time, and then start doing your homework. At this time, you should put the alarm clock out of sight. At the beginning, you can know the approximate time, but the closer you get to the end time, the more nervous you are. If you don't know the time, time is pressing, you can pay attention and go all out at once. But don't use it often, just once a day.
8. When reading a book or attending a class, take the attitude of explaining the content to others to improve your attention. People around you can be a bridge to train your attention.
Why can't you concentrate?
Maintaining good attention is the basic condition for the brain to carry out cognitive activities such as perception, memory and thinking. In our learning process, attention is the only door to open our hearts. The bigger the door opens, the more we learn. Once distracted or unable to concentrate, the door of the mind is closed, and all useful knowledge and information can't get in. Because of this, the French biologist Georges Ye Wei said, "Genius, first of all, is attention." In general, attention makes our psychological activities toward something, selectively accepting certain information, and inhibiting other activities and other information, and concentrating all psychological energy on what we point to. Therefore, good attention will improve the efficiency of our work and study. Attention deficit disorder is mainly manifested in the inability to direct psychological activities to a specific thing, or to concentrate all one's energy on this thing, while inhibiting attention to irrelevant things. The reasons for this situation are very complicated, and many serious psychological disorders can cause attention disorder. For students, it is mainly due to the heavy learning burden and excessive psychological pressure, which leads to high tension and anxiety, which leads to the obstacle of inability to concentrate. In addition, lack of sleep, the brain can not get enough rest, attention may also be distracted.
Therefore, when you feel upset because you can't concentrate, you might as well adopt the following methods to correct it:
(1), develop good sleep habits.
Because of the heavy burden of study, some students covet the darkness at night, and some even study late into the night with flashlights in the dormitory; Some students can't go to bed on time, chat with their classmates in the dormitory and so on. As a result, I can't get up on time in the morning. Even if I barely get up, I feel very heavy and can't get up for a day. Some people even fell asleep at their desks in class. As a student, the main learning task should be completed during the day. If you are listless during the day, your efficiency will be very low. Therefore, if you are a "night owl" type, I advise you to learn from the "lark", go to bed and get up on time, cheer up and improve your study efficiency during the day.
(2) learn to decompress yourself.
The learning task of senior high school students is very heavy, and the expectations of teachers and parents add another password to students' psychology; Some students attach great importance to their grades, exams, etc. This is tantamount to putting pressure on yourself. I am bound to be overwhelmed, exhausted, nervous and irritable, and I rarely have a moment of peace psychologically. So learn to decompress yourself and don't take your grades too seriously. No pains, no gains. As long as you work hard and pay, there will be good returns. Why let worry occupy our hearts and trouble ourselves?
(3) Do some relaxation training.
Sit comfortably in a chair or lie in bed, and then send rest information to all parts of the body. Start with the left foot, let the muscles of the foot tighten, and then relax, suggesting that it is resting. Then command the ankles, calves, knees and thighs to rest to the trunk, then relax from the feet to the trunk, and then from the left and right hands to the trunk. At this point, relax from the trunk to the neck, then to the head and face. This technique of relaxation training needs repeated practice to master, and once you master this technique, you will reach a relaxed and calm state in just a few minutes.
(4) Do some concentration training.
Yang Le and Zhang Guanghou, young mathematicians in China, worked quickly when they were young, and strictly trained themselves to concentrate. Here is a little game used to exercise attention in psychology. In a table with 25 squares, put the numbers 1-25 out of order, fill them in, and then count from 1 to 25 as quickly as possible, pointing out while reading and counting at the same time.
Research shows that it takes 7-8 year-old children 30-50 seconds to find the numbers on each chart in turn, with an average of 40-42 seconds; The time for normal adults to read a chart is about 25-30 seconds, and some people can shorten it to more than ten seconds. You can make more such training forms yourself and train once a day. I believe your attention level will gradually improve. "Cultivate good attention quality and improve students' academic performance"
The second stage:
As a special quality and ability, concentration needs to be acquired through training. So, what are the methods to train attention and improve concentration?
One way: use the power of positive goals.
What is the significance of this method? In other words, when you set yourself a goal and consciously improve your attention and concentration, you will find that ...
Why is it difficult for me to concentrate?
The reason why you don't pay attention is that you don't pay enough attention to the event, just like a child can play with the same toy for a day, but he can't sit still for five minutes. So I suggest that when you do something important, keep reminding yourself what I am doing and what I want to do. When you gradually solve things one by one, you will have a sense of accomplishment, and you will gradually find that you can concentrate on one thing. This should be cultivated slowly. You don't have to worry or concentrate, relax, remember your responsibilities and enjoy your success.
What should I do if I always lose my concentration?
Do you often feel bored, not interested in anything, and have a short attention span? In class, my eyes are distracted, my thinking is uncertain, I don't know what I am thinking, I don't know what the teacher is talking about, and I can't concentrate in class. When the transfer environment or the environment is noisy, it is also easy to be distracted and unable to work and study normally. Then, you should understand:
1, the biggest obstacle to concentration is lack of motivation. If a person is not interested in homework or work and can't find any meaning, it is impossible to concentrate. How can I concentrate on a job or course that is not interesting at first glance?
① Apply the term effect to concentrate. First of all, as long as you set a deadline, you can concentrate on completing the work that you are not interested in. Secondly, when planning a boring job, you only need to consider the end time. When the end time comes, it will force you to finish it. Finally, set up several intermediate stations, and you'd better pay attention before each intermediate station. In the process of learning, setting up several halfway terminals will prevent the phenomenon of slacking off halfway.
(2) apply the reward effect to concentrate. First of all, you can give yourself a reward as a reward for your study. This reward can be set according to your own needs and interests. Secondly, when encountering difficulties, you can motivate yourself by imaginary enemies and punishment.
(3) Pay attention to the use of clear goals. First of all, clear the big goal. When you are not interested in studying or working, as long as you can clearly distinguish your goals, you can always keep your attention. Secondly, expressing your goals in words or charts can improve your attention.
④ Use pleasant experience to concentrate. If we are studying. Only when you experience the taste of success at work can you have a pleasant experience, stimulate your fighting spirit and accept the work and study you don't want to do.
2. How to concentrate when the environment is disturbed? First of all, choose the right place. This kind of place is good for studying and working without being disturbed. However, in the environment, there is no need to be too rigid in fixed places.
3. How to concentrate when you are worried? Another important factor that hinders attention is the worry hidden in one's heart. Students who want the college entrance examination can't be full of energy, because they often think about things or worry about emotional problems, so they can't concentrate on their studies. If they want to be admitted to an ideal school, they should concentrate on their studies and get rid of all other thoughts.
(1) Good at using psychological factors to concentrate. First of all, if you write the unfinished chores on the memo, you will feel relaxed psychologically. Secondly, putting aside interpersonal relationships for a while can improve your attention. If you want to finish your work and study efficiently, you should have your own time, not just live for others. Third, only by abandoning dependence can we go all out. What you can do independently must be done by yourself. If you always think that someone will help you when you do something, you will not try your best to finish it, and you will not be efficient.
② Pay attention to image control. Always think about your image at work, and believe that your image at work and study can strengthen your attention.
③ Concentration by substitution effect. First, use other things to relax your spirit. When you can't concentrate, you can do some simple things first, which can eliminate distractions, stabilize your mood and concentrate. Secondly, before studying and working, you can make all kinds of preparations, which can ease your mood, eliminate other thoughts and help you concentrate. Finally, by doing what you like first and then finishing it completely, it's easy to concentrate on doing what you hate.
(4) A variety of movements can be coordinated to concentrate. When learning, your hands, eyes and mouth move, which is easy to restrain fatigue, improve learning efficiency and improve memory ability.
What if it's hard to concentrate?
I saw this on China Research TV. I hope it works for you.
New research shows that the metabolism of some tissues in the brain of ADHD patients is weaker than that of normal people. Because of its weak metabolism, it is not enough to control the body, so it is not enough to control the body, and its limbs do not move through the brain. This is what we call ADHD. In addition, because the metabolism of some tissues in the brain of ADHD patients is weaker than that of normal people, these tissues control people's temporary memory ability, so the temporary memory ability of ADHD patients is weaker than that of normal people, which is also the reason why ADHD patients are not as good at learning as normal people. ADHD is not unique to children, but a lifelong disease that will only appear when children grow up. Now the best drug for ADHD is methylphenidate (central stimulant).
In addition, after investigation, the incidence rate of children with a full stomach and a history of ADHD is higher than that of normal people.
Now all big hospitals can treat ADHD, and the effect is very good.
What are the reasons for adults' inattention?
In order to help you keep and concentrate, I suggest you do the following mental exercises of "concentration".
You decide to spend about 20 minutes concentrating. To do this, please find a quiet place and a flower or a lighted candle, and then focus on the target you choose (or the stamen of a flower or the bright spot of a lighted candle). In order to fully concentrate, you can take some time to completely relax yourself and then focus on your goals.
After you feel that your body has naturally breathed and relaxed at your own pace, sit alone in a quiet place, make sure that you have not been disturbed by any outside world for at least 15 minutes, and seriously stare at flowers or candles. First, you feel its existence and its essence, and you realize its mystery and beauty. You should remind yourself not to rush to complete this meditation on all the essential contents of the observed object. Then, pay close attention to the following details: its color depth, shape and morphology, and its relationship with other objects around it, and so on. Next, focus on this goal, and at the same time, you still breathe slowly and relax. Then, I meditate with the concept of "becoming things" of ancient Buddhists, which is a vivid way of integrating subject and object.
You don't need to explore this process rationally, and you don't need to try to understand it. Instead, allow yourself to experience the significance of observing this goal with your heart, and keep your factory's will on this goal, and gradually extend the time until it appears in your imagination, as if you have integrated with it, and then your life will sublimate.
You should do this mental exercise at least three times, and you will notice its role in completely concentrating your thoughts. When your mind becomes strong through concentrated practice, you will find that the problems of life no longer bother you. In fact, it becomes a problem only when you think it is a problem. Once you have experienced this change in your perception of a flower or a lighted candle, you can apply this perceptual attitude to other things, from personal life to work, from reading to reading difficult reports or getting all kinds of information at important meetings.

Why is it often difficult to concentrate when you feel anxious?
Hello, according to your question, I think this is mainly because the anxiety you mentioned is a negative emotion, which will cause people to have symptoms such as fear, tension and even palpitation, accompanied by obvious autonomic nervous symptoms, muscle tension and exercise anxiety, which will easily affect your concentration. Therefore, if this kind of anxiety appears, we can consider rebuilding new beliefs and enhancing the psychological quality of resisting anxiety to solve it.
