Study Tips: Concentration

Once again, the University of Texas offers us some useful tips on concentration (http://www.utexas.edu). Think of concentration improvement as a three-step process:

1. Learn the causes of poor concentration and decide which apply to you;
2. Understand what you can do to control these factors; and
3. Make your control habitual.

Make Control Habitual

Even if you lapse into old habits of distraction and daydreaming, keep insisting of yourself that you concentrate using these controls until you can routinely concentrate well on your studies for fifty minutes of every hour.
