You will need some concentrated effort to change your inner dialogue and the habits of busy thinking.

You can master concentration.

How to concentrate… being side tracked is a part of life and we interrupt ourselves almost half of the time typically 44%. It is easier to concentrate when you are engrossed in the activity, or you enjoy the person you are talking to.

Turn off the Tech, advise family and friends in your home you don’t want to be disturbed for one hour, set your phone to do not disturb mode…

realise you are in control of what comes your way.

You can reduce many of the concentrating robbing events and stimulus that take you from tasks – finding some me time is a good practice for bringing peace of mind.
