How to focus (without bullshit answers)

[Aub01]

I saw some answers online like “put tasks up” and “list some things” there’s no instruction on how to focus so i’ll do it myself, i forgot how to focus but now i’ve relearned it

1: firstly you need to actively do said thing
2: remove all distractions
3: and stay active on said topic or task

Your now focused, focusing is powerful, you instantly forget about time, your memory is more powerful, etc, but how do you know if your inactively doing something?

signs of inactive actions:

1: Not very memorable

2: underperforming

3: you experience more emotions than you used to (specific sign)


every time you focus for however long you focused and are fatigued, you need to take a 5 minute break of relaxing, don’t actively do anything while on break and you should be fine,

So I didn't notice this until now, but I will try to answer. Focusing is a skill that needs to be worked on and exercised like any other. The Japanese have a word for this, Zenshin, which is improvement through incremental means. Don't go for the big events, go for little events that will allow you to get little dopamine hits.
