What if I told you I can show you how to improve focus and concentration in less than five minutes a day?
Would you believe me?
If you've just said…
I'm not sure…
In fact… I'm downright skeptical!
Good answer.
Skepticism is good.
In fact, as you're about to learn, it's one of the best tools for creating lasting focus and concentration.
You can use the tool of skepticism (and others I'll share on this page) to create laser-sharp awareness that not only helps you understand information better…
It also makes you feel fantastic!
The best part?
Everything you do to improve concentration and focus also improves your memory.
And that's exactly what the Magnetic Memory Method mission is all about:
Showing you how focus, concentration and memory are all sides of the same dice.
Are you ready?
Great! Then let's get the focus and concentration party started with my favorite ways to improve concentration and focus.
1. Learn How To Improve Focus And Concentration By Resting More
Didn't think I would start off with a wildcard, did you?
But it's true.
According to Alex Soojung-Kim Pang in his book Rest: Why You Get More Done When You Work Less, many people throughout history who displayed mounds of focus and concentration…
Took a lot of rest.
Charles Dickens, for example, wrote tons of books but spent huge chunks of his day walking.
And as Palle Yourgrau shows in A World Without Time: The Forgotten Legacy of Gödel and Einstein, part of Einstein's success secret involved ample amounts of walking…
Just not walking alone. It's actually hard to tell who was smarter: Einstein or Gödel.
Personally, I wouldn't want to make any bets myself, but we know for a fact that both these men had these things in common:
1. They took lots of rest.
2. They walked a lot.
3. They were geniuses who changed the world.
The Two Secrets Of How Walking Increases Focus And Concentration…
According to Pang and the mountains of cool research he cites, walking isn't restful because it's not working.
Rather, walking lets the mind wander.
But wait a second!
Isn't mind wandering the opposite of focus and concentration?
Not necessarily.
In fact, when you let your mind wander, your brain chemistry changes.
Yes, we're talking about "drugs," specifically dopamine.
And from a scientific perspective, it's important to understand that most people get their best ideas when their dopamine levels are high.
These are, ironically, when we are the most distracted.
For example, you are most distracted and experiencing high levels of dopamine when you are dreaming, running, driving, walking, or, the most classic example of them all, taking a hot shower.
Why do we get more ideas when engaging in activities like these?
It's not just the dopamine.
It's also that we're disengaged. Speaking of which, I'd like you to be engaged, so let me ask you this:
