Is "Genius" Emptying The Brain And Improving Concentration?

Have you heard of these stories? Einstein put seven different sets of clothes in the closet for 7 days a week. There are many identical socks in the system administrator with excellent working ability, and apple Steve Jobs always wears black round neck sweaters. Many so-called "genius" when they work, they have no response to the changes of the surrounding environment.

There may be some exaggeration in these cases, perhaps some guesses about genius, but you should notice that when you do not worry or think about other things, you will be more easily focused on current affairs. This is an important idea in GTD and a principle you should always remind yourself.

Think of what you are trying to concentrate on making a report. Your brain is mixed up: there is a meeting in an hour; I am hungry, I have not eaten in the morning; I go to buy bags of milk or yogurt in a moment; secretly look around the office and find someone is eating, I also want to eat; in the morning I met your boss, what he said to you... Compared to "Einstein", I am afraid this is the "most people in most cases" normal: a large number of things occupy the active part of the brain, inefficient thinking leads to low efficiency.

In fact, you can have the ideal concentration to deal with similar work.

As the article said at the beginning, write off those non current tasks in mind.

If you have a meeting, set an alarm clock for yourself, so that the alarm clock will remember something for you.

Write all the milk and yogurt on the shopping list, and buy them at any time.

If your boss's opinion is not related to your current job, put it on the list and consider it when you encounter it.

To improve your concentration and efficiency, you need to empty your brain. You should write things down to clear the air.

The two step is very simple, but it enables you to make great strides toward efficient life.

Finally, a trick is given: you can also use the windows to-do list or Photoshop to write a picture on a picture, and then set it to Windows Wallpaper. This method is very suitable for those who use most computers.
