You need a high degree of concentration! From the psychological point of view, attention usually refers to selective attention, that is, attention is a tendency to selectively process some stimuli and ignore others.
It is the direction and concentration of human feelings (vision, hearing, taste, etc.). ) and perception (consciousness, thinking, etc. ) acts on some objects at the same time (excluding other factors).
When people pay attention to something, they are always feeling, remembering, thinking, imagining or experiencing something.
In other words, people can't perceive many objects at the same time, only a few objects in the environment. In order to reflect things clearly, profoundly and completely, it is necessary to make psychological activities selectively point to related objects.
But the reality is:
On the surface, it seems to be focused on doing one thing, but in fact it is only one-dimensional focus. You are not paying full attention to what you are doing.
Because the process of really focusing on one thing is to perceive, remember, think, imagine or experience that thing.
Do you have the following fake diligence?
When studying in class, there are some distractions in my mind: how to finish the task assigned by my boss today!
When I was planning to go to work, WeChat rang: A former colleague who hasn't contacted for a long time asked you how you were recently. I'd better answer him first and then continue to write the plan.
When reading a book, I can't concentrate anyway: Oh, how time flies!
Get ready for bed at night: brush the screen, look up at the time after brushing, it's already early in the morning. ......
I study at home: my family has been bothering me! Or you are dealing with work in the office: colleagues have been bothering you!
.....
What is more terrible than false diligence is that you don't know that you are in a false state of concentration. What is more terrible than not knowing that you are in a state of pseudo-diligence is that you know, but you don't make any changes.
Wrong understanding and not doing it are the key reasons for a series of negative emotions.
As far as concentration itself is concerned, what better way is there? Provide you with the following eight methods.
0 1
Deliberately practice concentration
Many people think that the first step to improve your concentration is to have as strong a concentration as you can in the field you want to improve, but I have a different view.
My friend is a meditation lover. I like meditation because I have been in a bad state for a while and want to look at myself in this way.
After a period of meditation, I was surprised to find that my concentration in doing things has been greatly improved.
I also exercised my concentration under very unexpected circumstances. Before and after the graduation season, time was relatively free, and I began to read many workplace novels, deeply attracted by the plots in the novels.
Since then, every time I find myself in the stage of insufficient concentration, I will find my feelings again by reading novels. I recommend reading novels by Keigo Higashino and Mao Mu!
Doing what you really like is a deliberate practice of concentration.
Reward-oriented concentration This reward can be an artificial material reward, and what is more powerful than material reward is the reward of flow experience. Concentration is the means, and whether a thing can be completed efficiently is the ultimate goal. In this sense, every time you feel that your efficiency has improved, you can reward yourself with a small gift that you want most. Why does it make people feel improved? People are emotional animals, a group that needs to be satisfied, motivated and recognized, and sometimes they have to recognize themselves unconditionally and willfully.
What does flow experience mean?
Psychologist Mihaly? Mihaly defined "flow" as a feeling, that is, a person's mental energy is completely devoted to some kind of activity. When heart flow occurs, there will be a high degree of excitement and satisfaction.
People who have a state of concentration every day often feel very cool, which is caused by the flow experience.
Therefore, you can give true love to what you like to do and do it in return, so that you will cherish it and be full of motivation.
03
Independent spatial concentration
Don't be disturbed often?
The best way is to create an independent space for yourself to concentrate:
When you get up early, everything is quiet and you can enjoy the time of being completely alone.
Arrive at the company one hour or more in advance.
When working at home and having children, discuss with your family and go to a nearby cafe to work efficiently for a few hours.
During working hours, I occasionally hide in the conference room to create solitude.
The most important thing to focus on independent space is to have such awareness and be willing to try.
Believe me, your colleagues and children don't need you as much as you think, but you have accomplished a lot of things efficiently in this way.
04
Tomato bell concentration
When you feel that time passes too slowly, you are absent-minded and you can't tell what is bothering you, the best way is to turn on your tomato clock.
The moment you press it, there seems to be a sacred sense of ceremony. 25 minutes of hard work +5 minutes of rest will make you more efficient.
Just don't forget, every once in a while, appropriately increase the concentration time by 25 minutes.
05
Empty brain focus
We are not afraid to think about things, but we are afraid to do it involuntarily after thinking about it, completely breaking the whole state of concentration.
Every time you concentrate on something, keep a pen and notebook at hand and empty all your thoughts into the notebook.
It's simple, but it works wonders. A clean brain is more important than a quiet environment 100 times.
06 off-line concentration
I have several time zones completely disconnected from the internet and concentrate on my studies:
On the way to work, 2 hours on the way to and from work, completely disconnected from the internet to study.
When I got up early in the morning, I was completely divorced from writing, reading and running.
Before entering the bedroom at night, put away the broken net and charge it in the living room.
Try to disconnect the internet when you are with your child, and accompany your baby with high quality.
So many friends around me will find that I often disappear regularly, leaving my attention off the net and finding my own attention.
07
Blank focus
No matter what ability you insist on, you will feel tired and bored.
I will leave myself a blank period of 20%, when the state is really bad, when I can't cut off the internet as scheduled in an emergency, when I really want to concentrate but I still can't see the book.
I said to myself: honey, you are tired, why don't you get up and eat a cake, drink a cup of honey lemonade, watch a funny video and concentrate!
08
Cognitive enhancement concentration
Compared with the various rules and regulations of concentration, the highest state of cognitive upgrading concentration is to repeatedly confirm what you are doing with the result as the guide.
I feel good after reading an article, but I can't remember anything. I reread it with the purpose that I will gain something this time.
I seem to have heard a good point just now, but I didn't understand it. I listened again with curiosity;
Learning with purpose and concentration is the most efficient way to do things.
Eight methods, there is always one that suits you!
Please remember: from now on, please don't emphasize what you know and can't do, and be wary of being fooled by yourself!
