The Importance Of Being Fully Present

                                                    "If you chase two rabbits,
                                                                  BOTH will escape"

Don't allow anything to capture your attention unless it is in the best interest of the task at hand.

Concentration will keep out clutter, noise and other distraction that will keep you from completing your task.
Wherever you are... be there!

Learn to concentrate on what you are suppose to be doing for the moment. You can't be thinking of everything you need to be doing... all the time. 

It is exhausting and it will lead to burn out.

You must learn to concentrate on just one thing at a time. 

A project, a job... you must take it one task at a time until you complete it.

Can you imagine if you were a mountain climber and you lost your concentration for a second... you could fall and die. 

How about a tennis player... if you lost your concentration for a second or two.... you might loose the game.

There is no such thing as multi-tasking. 

It is called task-switching and it will only slow you down.
Your brain can only concentrate on one thing at a time. 

So do what you have set out to do. 

Keep your mind on that one task.

Why?
Because if you don't, you won't be able to accomplish anything.

It takes a lot of discipline to not answer the phone while you are in the middle of doing a task. Or checking your emails and social media. 

It will take a lot of discipline to keep the "do not disturb" sign up when you are working on a project.
Concentration takes a lot of discipline.

Concentrate on the work a hand and demand of yourself the discipline of staying focused.

Just remember when you are at work...WORK!

When you at home with family or with your friends... BE THERE!

"Learn to concentrate single-mindedly on the most important thing 

  that you can be doing at any time."
