How To Improve Concentration On Study
« on: October 09, 2010, 09:45:02 AM »

Many students have difficulty concentrating while studying. Being able to concentrate while you are studying is essential to doing well in class and on tests.
Here are 10 suggestions for improving your study concentration:


1. Study in a quiet place that is free from distractions and interruptions. Try to create a space designated solely for studying.

2. Make a study schedule that shows what tasks you need to accomplish and when you plan to accomplish each task. This will provide you with the structure you need for effective studying.

3. Try to study at the time of day you work best. Some people work well early in the morning, others late at night. You know what works best for you.

4. Make sure you are not tired and/or hungry when you study. Otherwise, you won't have the energy you need to concentrate. Also, maintain your physical fitness.

5. Don't try to do two tasks at the same time. You won't be able to concentrate on either one very well. Concentration means focusing on one thing to the exclusion of all else.

6. Break large tasks into series of smaller tasks that you can complete one at a time. If you try to complete a large task all at once, you may feel overwhelmed and will be unable to maintain your concentration.

7. Relax. It's hard to concentrate when you're tense. It's important to relax when working on a task that requires concentration. Meditation is helpful to many students.

8. Clear your mind of worrisome thoughts. Mental poise is important for concentration. You can get distracted by your own thoughts. Monitor your thoughts and prevent yourself from following any that take you off track. Don't daydream.

9. Develop an interest in what you are studying. Try to relate what you are studying to you own life to make it as meaningful as possible. This can motivate yourself to concentrate.

10. Take breaks whenever you feel fatigued. There is no set formula for when to take breaks. You will know when you need to take a break.

First find out what are the other things coming to your mind. Point them. Is it about the gossip with friends, or the movie, or tension of exam...  ... ? whatever it is,  TELL YOUR MIND, ok! i will think of the movie after doing this math or reading only a page. With out ignoring, tell your other thoughts ,well i am coming back to you a few minutes later. It is a tricky mental game with yourself!

Divide your study into many parts. Think i will read these lines before going to the shop or before going to sleep... ...

Try this.

Mam, I also feel these types of the problem.. My problem is that when I want to do something, until whenever I complete this task properly,  I cannot concentrate on study. I don't know how will I solve it.

Thank you mam for your valuable comment. I will try to follow your advice.

Ashiq

This is a good sign that you prefer perfect completion of any work.
This is not a problem rather an asset.
Use this asset and think that studying a chapter or study for a quiz is a work that you must do at a time.
During your exam dont be involved with such work that needs too much of your time.

(Tell me more about - what types of incomplete  job keep you at unrest.)
