How to increase focus

I will try to highlight two aspects of our routine life. These aspects are happening unconsciously even when we are living the most productive day. I tried to curb on these habits and I am seeing amazing results. I am finding more time to give to my family, job and hobby. It is so amazing when you find abundant time to watch a good movie, read a good book and follow on a good habit. Life becomes fun and bright. Ok two things 👇

1. Facebook vs Twitter

Everyday story of useless notifications

If you compete on the grounds of honesty, openness and easily finding amazing audience, Twitter is the obvious winner. It does not ask you for money to promote your posts. Only a small hashtag makes your content visible to thousands of people. These blogs are distributed on #100DaysOfCode hashtag. Hashtag is making it possible for me to easily market my product. Facebook however, daily takes more time to publish content and always asks me to promote it for around 5 USD = PKR 785.

It is alright, asking money from your customers. But asking everyday twice until you get fed up of this notification is targeted harassment. I do not want to see these notifications and I am unable to get rid of them.

I would say, use twitter to stay connected to your networks. And use it only for less than 30 minutes in your entire day. More of twitter is also bad on your mental health.

2. Media vs Newspaper

I did not know this happened until yesterday, 2 days late. I am so lucky I did not get dragged with the weird journalism of dragging people’s reputation. Two people fought like normal people fight and media has been punishing both of them for no sane reasons. These people have families and relatives to interact with. More abusive attitude of media and people around them is only going to affect their lives.

Media is badly corrupted. More people talking more insanely to be heard by even more insane world. It has to be cut out off your lives. It is only noise polluting your minds sub consciously. Resort to Newspapers. Read one to two articles every morning with a hot cup of tea. It boosts focus and liberates of multitude of negativity.

Conclusion

If you are sincere with your life, you should start bringing in more focus by giving up on negativity and passimism. It is only focus on one side of our life, that makes us happier and contented. No body’s life is perfect. We all have difficulties. But people who can build an illusionary world of optimism around them, are winners. Protect this imaginary world with better lit walls. And sit inside it with a bright mind.

May be our worst enemy is abundant information on TV Channels and social media. May be it is useless to scroll on other people’s life on social media. May be it is too much to understand for us. May be sooner we turn off our TVs and Mobiles, sooner we will find focus and tools of productivity around us.
