How can I improve my concentration?

Try meditating and clearing your mind. It really helps you relax and concentrate.

You could consider getting a Nintendo DS, and the game “Brain Age”. It has very similar games as Lumosity, and it is only $20. You can find used DS’s on Amazon or eBay for pretty cheap too.

Somehow, asking for help about focusing on work related tasks on a site where people go to piddle their time away seems like a bad idea

You might not want to go this route, but you could take meds like ritalin or adderall to improve you’re focus.

@Shuttle128 Haha, you’re probably right.

@reacting_acid I have tried meditating in the past but found it incredibly difficult to clear my mind.

@buckyboy28 I have been thinking of getting a DS for this reason but it will probably become more of a distraction. It’s an idea though.

@Parrappa Hmm, not really. However, do you know of any herbal alternatives?

To be honest, try not doing things that disinterest you, i get bored fairly easy because i figure things out to quickly, once i figure something out im bored with it..

Coffee.

Stop worrying about it.

I am he same way. Sometimes you just have to say fuck it.

I’ve read that CoenzymeQ10 helps with mental clarity and focus. And I bet a health food store would help.

Just because something is hard doesn’t mean you shouldn’t keep trying to do it.

A little backstory on why I posted the Q:

My lack of concentration is mainly a problem while I’m at work where I’m order picking. It means that I can’t just stop and get a coffee or do something else and come back to it. I’m constantly doing the same thing over and over and over, and over until my brain just says $@#% it, I’m off. Until I’m doing something I love for a living I need to be able to focus on menial tasks, or I’m not going to be in this job (or other jobs) very long.

Thanks @faye I’ll try Holland & Barret sometime this week.

:)

1. get up early every morning
2. meditate
