Study obviously very focused, but suddenly thoughts drifting away, and so back to God, time has slipped away a large section, want to control can not control, really makes people anxious and waste of time.
Hello, I'm Bonnie, the whale social worker ~ give you a warm hug! I've been in a similar situation before, I can't concentrate when I'm working on a question, I stare at the question for half an hour, I can't even read a single line, and a feeling of remorse rises up in my heart. Here are a few tips I've summarized that I hope will help you~
1. Eat more food that relieves brain fatigue.Help restore brain power:Examples are salmon, green leafy vegetables, olive oil, avocado and other healthy foods.

2. Ensure adequate sleep:Regular and quality rest is effective in improving concentration levels.
3. Try listening to music while studying to increase efficiency(This varies from person to person, some people find music distracting)
But some people believe that: music can 1 ⃣️ regulate mental states; 2 ⃣️ improve emotional climate
Studies have shown that music with a brisk tempo can help improve work accuracy and efficiency.
📚Reference: tweet "Cool Brain Science" article: "Should I listen to music while working and studying or not? The correct answer is: this has to be discussed in categories.
4.Arranging appropriate rest
Being distracted is actually the brain regulating itself; after all, no one can stay highly focused all the time. The brain focuses for up to 2 hours, it needs 20-30 minutes of relaxation, so it may be worthwhile to take a nap, take a walk, chat or listen to music to recharge when you are lost in thought.
5. Learning to be grateful
Gratitude improves mood and concentration. Studies have found that people who are constantly grateful are more positive and optimistic, look forward to each day, and have more energy.
