53 / 365 Tame the Wandering Mind
Success in any Endeavour requires single-minded
attention to detail and total
concentration.
Willie Sutton
Do
you know that if you can concentrate on one thing, you can concentrate on
anything? The ability to concentrate is a skill, which can be developed. Some
people may have this skill naturally in them like a mature good voice. Others
can develop the same.
The
quality of our concentration will decide the quality of our execution. In order
to accomplish any task, we need to integrate the powers of our brain and the
powers of our mind. Brain power is
natural, whereas mind power has to be harnessed.
From
today, spend at least thirty minutes every day to develop and enhance your
concentration quality. Have a fixed time and a fixed place. Take any one idea
or thought or mantra like Om and focus all your attention on the same. Be
conscious whenever your mind wanders and bring it back to the point of
concentration. Start with just 5 minutes and slowly go up to 30 minutes or even
one hour. Unless you take efforts, your span of concentration will not improve!
We
have to tame the wandering mind.
