Everyday we are bombarded with so many things that surround us that we often lose focus on what we want to do and should be doing. We can be busy doing thousand and one thing that doesn't improve our life in anyway. The question we should often asked ourselves is "busy doing what"?

Technology have greatly improve our lifestyle but at the same time it has also invaded our lifestyle. You can easily be order back to work when you are enjoying time with your family. Handphone have made us contactable no matter where you are.

At our work place, we are facing an ever increasing work load as companies try to save cost by employing lesser people to do the same amount of work. That is why many employees are stress out by the time they reach home. Then there are those who even bring their work load back.

When you bring your work back home, your work and family life get confused. While playing with your kids, you could be thinking about work. While at work, you feel guilty about not spending quality time with your kids and you kept thinking about your kids. This become a vicious cycle and it affect your concentration.

Without concentration, our body are in motion but we are not productive at all. We may start doing one thing and then something distract us and we stop and start another. It is just like people who invest in stocks. Most stock investor are loser because there are many noise in the market. The stock analyst might recommend a hot stock for today. Tomorrow, he recommend another. People who can't concentrate lose their focus and kept chasing one stock after another and end up losing their money. Only people like Warren Buffett wins because he only concentrate on a few number of stocks and buys like a hawk. Even a stock market crash does not affect his decision. Warren buffett concentrate on a single stock investment strategy and knows what he is investing and enjoy doing his work.

One of the main reason why many people find it difficult to concentrate because they could be doing something which bored them. People with great concentration power love what they do and to it well. Take a good look at those great people in history, they often are people who choose task or job that they enjoy working on. When you enjoy your task, the tick of time flies very fast. Hours past like minutes and nothing can distract you from completing your task.

At time, it is our lifestyle that let us forms bad habits. Today, people multi-task too much. They watch TV, play games or talk on their handphone while eating. They write emails and talk on the phone at the same time. All these weaken our concentration power and we may be busy doing non-important things.

So, take time to think about what you really want to focus on. Don't spread your attention too thinly or you may miss out the success that could be yours.
