i just lost focus and fell asleep watching this video.. so monotonous. the only thing i got from this is that you didnt sleep and that you have smelly breath.

[jeremynoeljohnson]

[lalisingh794]

[karthikApsingekar]

[2009hvj]

hey, thanks man. really does make sense now, I've been having hard time doing one thing at a time. my mind always functions to do more every day, I don't care what is it but got to get something done, then, end of the day, nothin is done.

[unknownsungod3]

[princesspearlskmk]

thats sounds helpful thanks :)

[thedrjerm]

Glad I could help :)

[princesspearlskmk]

i have one more problem n that is when i read for example when i am studying for the test..i always think abt something else..i dont know why i cnt focus..i keep thinking abt something or the other..plz help :)

[thedrjerm]

Mine wandering while reading is something that is common, so don't feel too bad. Some things that will help are: Get in a quiet place, no distractions; Read the words out loud in the book; Summarize each page to yourself after you read it; Picture what is happening in the book in your mind; Tell yourself you are a master at focusing constantly - don't let any thoughts of not being able to concentrate enter. Good luck!

[princesspearlskmk]

i will surely try what u said u have helped me alot...thanks..may GOD bless u :)

[princesspearlskmk]

i know this weird but it is happening to me since i was in my highschool it like i look at the teacher which gives the teacher illusion that i am looking at her and listening while i am actually not i am thinking of something else...and i dnt hear a word what she says

[thedrjerm]

I know what that is like, I have had that same problem. Write down periodically what your teacher is saying. Make an effort to ask and answer questions. Talk to the teacher before and after class. By actively participating and getting yourself in a more active state, you will better be able to concentrate and focus.

[BubblegunNoGum]

@thedrjerm Thanks. I've got the same problem and i'll surely try that. Though I have another problem, which was why i actually found this video. I have problems concentrating on my homework. In your video you said you had to do things you like, but probably like most kids of my age, dont really like homework. I'm gonna try using more schedules (idk if its spelled correctly, im not english). Do you have anymore small tips?

[thedrjerm]

Best advice I can give is schedule specific time to do your homework and turn it into a game somehow - that you can finish as soon as possible and retain. Create a 'power chart' that you give yourself a sticker or something on whenever you complete your assignments. Take it as a competition to do the best in your class. Those are some things that helped me :)

[BubblegunNoGum]

@thedrjerm Haha i think im a bit too old for stickers, though i get the idea. Thanks alot!. I'm going to try that. Maybe i just need something more satisfying instead of just crossing out stuff I finished.(though that feels kinda good too). Finishing it as soon as possible isnt really an option yet. I'm always postpone my homework, but that's a problem in a different category ;]. Now its the problem that i have to do all at once, and i cant concentrate for too long. Im gonna try this, Thanks!

[RedWOLF4Life96]

i couldnt cocentrate so bad  a read a few comments n the description and fastworded n xed out lol

[thedrjerm]

If at first you don't succeed, try, try again :)

[lleins12]

[KolodziejczykKuba]

thanks!

[thepianoaddict]

XD i had 2 watch it 2 times because i was reading comments and the description ;p

[thedrjerm]

LOL thepianoaddict, I've done that myself with videos as well :)

[s0ciooo]

Unfortunately doing this is not as easy :(. I'm going to try this method, because I've got exams coming up in a few days, hopefully I'm successful.

[kojelja0]

Someone who wants to progress and realy has his aim, he doest need this tools. It comes automaticly itself, the man dont need to think about that because all is in one simple thing- if u realy wants do something: just do it.

[thedrjerm]

True, there are some people who are able to concentrate better than others.

[justrightsamz]

i keep thinking about concentrating too much ...when its something really important and after a while i realize...i waste a lot of time trying...when i know its a lot easier to just do it...but why does this happen on these times?

[thedrjerm]

The best advice I can give is this: Preparation and planning can only take you so far. Eventually you have to take the leap of faith and just do it. It is simply setting all thoughts aside and just doing it.

[R3v3r4nD]

Looks like a good video - I'll watch it some other time

:)

[bomber22152]

hey you got a point i got the same problem i think i need to set up my schedule and actually try to follow it thanks your video helped me a lot

[moersenice]

I've got a real problem.

[thedrjerm]

I'm sorry to hear that, if I can help in any way, please let me know :)

[kingpinbaby107]

[thedrjerm]

you are right, I had to correct myself during the video - good eye, or ear that is.

[antydreamy]

this video is wrong

[thedrjerm]

antydreamy, I'd love to hear what you think is 'wrong' about this video. Any specific suggestions and input are welcome as I am always looking to improve what I do.

[JonnyDaFox]

[d8te1]

[svrbastard]

[svrbastard]

nice it helped alot

[rautermann]

nice and helpful video in general, but i was hoping for something more specific, like a concentration technique to KEEP your focus while you are already doing something. thanks nevertheless

[thedrjerm]

Thank you for the input, I will make another video where I talk about keeping your focus specifically while you are already doing something.
