Thank you so very much for all that you teach dear Sir Jim Kwik & Dandapani. You're my favourite teacher online 💛 I am been suffering from TBI and PTSD. And I'm on medication since past one month. Nexito 10 mg & I keep clonaz for urgent cases. I am having nerve pain in chest and neck area sometimes. Is it due to vitamin B deficiency or the head injury. My MRI & scans shows normal. But the pain still remains on back side of the head where I was hit numerous times by a some guys. Thank you for blessing with your advises. Your biggest fan Love from Nepal 🇳🇵 ❤
@@xilo3012 Multitasking is a myth. You think you are doing multitasking because your mind is shifting its awareness from one thing to another at a very fast pace. In reality you are always doing one thing at a time, you just don't realize it.
@@nikhilarora5344 You're right.Its not the actual multi tasking we/our brain is doing, rather it is time sharing. Same concept is used in Operating systems where we talk about multi tasking but with a single CPU, it does always one task but the switch between processes is so fast that we can't realize and we think it is doing multi tasking. For multi tasking to happen, there should be multi processors(analogous to having multiple brains). With single brain, at any point in time, one thing can be done. Apologies if I am wrong...
@@nikhilarora5344not quite, there are people who can draw with one hand and solve math with another. Drawing and making patterns is completely different than analyzing and concluding data
I pray that whoever reads this and is going through a difficult time, don't give up, good things are coming for you, you will achieve your dreams in this lifetime
Guys I found out how to concentrate and improve yourself by squeezing your mind muscles .it gives you a quick period of concentration for me it improve my vision and my inner voice and my thoughts I hope someone’s develop my idea cause it doesn’t last more than 10 seconds than you came back normal
I have been struggling my life with ADHD ,and dispersion for 17yrars . Maybe more than that , started getting medication for 8 years , all I have heard is I have to deal with it. It took 17years to me to figure out that cause of all these bullshit sicknesses is concerntation. I practiced , forced myself to too hard finally I could rewire my brain and completely got rid of all my mental issues . Last week I suddenly become someone entirely different and feel like a genius who knows everything. I am 37 now. My life just started .. 😊
@@medstudent.5645 first u need to understand the theory behind all these bad things among us . It's about the wrong program which we made unconsciously during our Life Time. In order to change it for better, we need rewrite the bad program in us to a better one. There are 3ways to do that Hypnosis Brain shock treatment (I am not really familiar with) Or being on the present moment. I chosed "being on present moment" Need to stay every second on the present moment and make mistakes Right day today life while being positive . Should never let your mind travels in to past or future if it's not necessary for just a moment in case. You won't get resalt over night , coz there's a bad program that already chronicled in side you which needs to be replaced by a New one. So u need to stick with that practice for awhile. Think we have 24hours per day , we sleep at least 7hours then do the math , we got 17hours usually we stay awake. During this 17hours u need to stay on the present moment positively as much as you can to rewrite the program. The time is depending on how long u can do it. Our old program is very solid and like a railway track that keeps the train runs on it. So it will always pull u back in to thy track when u feel negative and lost your emotions always . So what u basically do is making a strong solid program just like a different rail track within you. Successful people also did the same thing but not knowing this secret . I hope this information would helps.
this was exactly what I needed. I'm finding it very hard to focus on my studies, my awareness keeps drifting away which makes studying way harder, it's taking me more time than it should. This is my "aha" moment when I noticed that I really need to work on my concentration, thank you both. My aha moment here was when Dandapani said " imagine you've been practising distraction for 20 years, you'd be so good at it" which is true in my case. Thank you Jim for helping us live more fulfilled lives. You are great.
This is very helpful to me. I suffer from OCD and my therapist once told me that "the mind is tree a full of monkeys; some are sad, some are happy, some are fighting, and some are throwing shit all over the place." You take this metaphor and you marry it with Dandapani's, and it in a way it all makes sense. You can't control your thoughts, but you can control what you do about them. I once heard that a big reason why people cant meditate, and profoundly refuse to, is solely because once they close their eye, the notice how "crazy" they are in terms of the vast thoughts, images, short/long stories that come to play. The point is at the moment not to run away, but to run towards. You do this, one step at a time, and the more you practice, the bigger and better each step feels. Thank you Dandapani, the state of Maine loves you and so do I.
Well, one must breathe all the time, why not focus upon your breathing even just for a few minutes per day, especially in the morning. Feel the breath going in and out at the tip of the nose, notice when the mind drifts away, bring it back and think of nothing but the breathing itself, always coming back after drifting. Do that for 5 or 10 minutes each morning and you will find that you are able to apply that to any task. Thank you Jim and Dandapani for sharing, love you guys!

I've said this many times in the past. "Med-Ed" (meditation training) should have as much a place in our schools as "Phys-Ed" does now. Concentration/Focus training, gratitude practice, goal setting...so many things in our school system should take precedence over what is currently taught.
For :- Concentration:- Do one thing at a time Will power:-1) Finished where you began 2) Do little bit more than you think you can 3) Do little bit better than you think you can Practice practice practice it
I’m going to focus in feeling satisfied, happy, and be way more aware of my moods, when I’m in conversations!! I want to have more meaningful conversation and stop being so self centered!!!
What a fantastic example that he gave difference between mind and awareness Mind is like a base in which lot of things kept and awareness is like a ball ,We can only control that ball but not base....Absolutely right
Wow ever since I've saw Dandapani and watching him. My mind and I started to follow his story. You both are very inspiring. I am almost 50th and don't even know what I want in life. Sad but so true.
I can remember in the 70s we had to live , learn , without likes and shares. We used our imagination and creativity with that you used your mind and your hands for usefulness.
Thank you, Jim. We need Great Spirits, Minds like you and Dandapani are. We need to wake up and stay conscious instead of "sleeping" our life in illusion. We get very useful help to take our life into our hands instead of living as victims. Peace with You.
I am now 15 seeing this after it was posted years ago, I'm glad I have gotten out of this persona to where I let everything control me... I've been learning a lot from you two recently and If I saw this when it was posted, when I was 13, it'll be nearly unimaginable how much of a better person I would be. Thank y'all, figuring stuff like this out myself is always frustrating bc I never know where to start.
Olympia LePoint's book, her TedX, lead me to Kwik then Dandapani. In just 5 weeks I'm learning my brain is a high functioning tool. I share this info with my son & sister. I'm almost 70 and you have improved me with life. With structure. With power. With learning to focus. 🌅 🌎 🌙
Awareness is so amazing. It’s been a long time but I’m very happy to stumble upon this. I’ll be practicing my concentration starting with my wife and son.
I think the best way to really practice concentration is if you concentrate on things that are boring to you. Your mind instantly gonna travel to places to entertain itself, so it's the perfect playing ground for improving your concentration.
I tinker with Python programming, I always start off with small projects, to start the way to finish, completely much bigger Python projects, and I just simply watch the hours flash by, while in deep thought; plotting and planning my project to a working, finished wonder. Learn what you aspire to become, and let the inspiration take you there. Nothing is ever free. Hard work is the only key. Because if you truly enjoy what you are doing, then it won't be hard work at all. Sometimes it's challenging, but you wouldn't want it any other way. To achieve anything, you must first of all things. You must believe in yourself and follow your heart. Use your brain, but always feel it in your heart first, or it simply won't work. Turn concentration into ponder. That's simply how I achieve that level to be able to start something and complete it, no matter how much time it takes to tinker away at it. I will always finish what I start. Because to me, computer science is what triggers my ability to sit for hours and think, plot and plan my project from start to finish...
I am going to practise in order to succeed at my flight school. It is the reason why I listen jim kwik in the first place and he show me a GREAT way of doing that.
I just made a screenshot of this video. I will concentrate on my daily eating routines - and stay fully present during the feeding. This is my first step in practicing concentration. Thank you Jim and Dandapani.
I concentrate by using some amazing simple tricks 1. Wake up early at sharp 04:00am (I discovered some amazing tricks that help me a lot to get up early) 2. Decipline yourself take a look at your to do list 3. Fresh up 4. Most important -Meditate (daily practice of meditation helped me in my studies a lot I can concentrate more and I m able to absorb more) 5. Read books daily or listen to audio books☺my favorite 6. Never study for more than an hour. Take short breaks, fresh ur mind and get ready to hustle a little more
@@ashyskk 🙃install 'forest' I recently installed this app it will help you to stay away from your phone while working, u can plant trees in ur virtual forest and their is also rain music to stay focused, if u touch the phone until ur decided time was not over your tree will not bloom and u will have to plant an unhealthy tree in your forest.if you want u can try it🏅🌈

I can’t believe, how valuable on the each of your words. I think this is the most educated program in social media in the world. Who are listening this. They are very lucky to get next one.
I fucking love his mindset and this is the second video that I’ve watch. I wish every woman and mother would watch this and get rid of “multitasking mindset” eventually.
Lately, i'm doing one wonderful practice to learn concentration: i'm standing on nails. That's what shuts my brain down and lets me drive through my life.
Great. Landed on this talk because I was reading an article and after five minutes I had no idea what I had read. As a child I was told to concentrate, it was far too abstract an idea for me, an I thought if I screwed up my eyes I was concentrating.
lol, I put it on 2x speed and scrolled to the comments only about 7 seconds in the video. Saw this comment. I usually go to the comments after I increase the speed just to see if someone typed out some bullet points.
I’ve been asking myself the last few months how to concentrate ?? And wallah! This video popped out! Thank you Jim for doing what you do & Dandapani for your wisdom! God bless you both
Kwik we people are so happy to have you. I learned tapping technique form the expert you brought which is so life changing. Do bring many experts. Bring many experts who spoke in Ted talk if pos.
I’m going to concentrate whenever I’m reading a book/watching my daily videos like this one I just watched, going to concentrate in the studio when making music, going to concentrate when I’m on the charts and also go to concentrate when with family and friends and doing my chores at home 🏡
I've studied both of these amazing men. It's So great that they're collaborating on this video! I love the "ball of light" exercise from Dandipani. That was a huge revelation for me. He goes further into it in how own videos. Jim and his story are just absolutely mind-blowing as well. Things could have certainly gone in a different direction for him. But learning how to concentrate, and how to actually learn....in my opinion, literally saves his life. That's to you both for such sage advice!!
This video is AMAZING! Be honest who else’s mind wandered and got distracted by the end of the video?? That is BAD! 15 mins.…that was it! I’ll be strengthening my mental muscle every day!! 😅
Dandapani and Jim Kwik discuss the importance of concentration and provide tips on how to improve it. Some key points include: Concentration is at the crux of all human success and endeavor. Concentration is something that can be learned and practiced. The ability to concentrate is essential for manifesting and creating what you want in life. The first step in improving concentration is defining what it is: the ability to keep your awareness on one thing for an extended period of time. Practice doing one thing at a time to improve concentration. For example, when speaking with a loved one, give them your undivided attention. Develop empathy and patience with yourself in the process of improving concentration. Technology is not inherently bad; it is our inability to exercise discipline around its use that is the problem. Concentration is necessary for being present in all experiences and for being mindful. Awareness can be visualized as a glowing ball of light that can travel to different areas of the mind. To improve concentration, one can also practice meditation, set a timer to focus on one task for a set amount of time, or practice deep breathing to calm the mind and increase focus. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the importance of concentration for success and happiness, and provides practical tips for improving it in daily life.
I came to RUclips to learn how to trade after listening to a guy on radio talk about the importance of investing and how he made $460,000 in 4 months from $160k. Somehow this video has helped shed light on some things, but I'm confused, I'm a newbie and I'm open to ideas.
It is also possible to produce superior performance provided you do something different from the majority. However, most of us tend to pay more attention to the shiniest position in the market than to the cost of proper diversification
Having monitored my portfolio performance which has made a jaw dropping from $360k just the past two quarters alone, I have learned why experienced traders makes enormous returns from the seemingly unknown market.
Interesting. I have a lump sum of cash doing absolutely nothing at all in my bank account, I wanna get something started with it. You seem to be doing excellent for yourself, how did you achieve this?
It's almost like humans always have to learn more, above the knowledge they already have. Core knoweldges are focus, compassion, try hard, relax. With this we can achieve anything, learn anything and just pile up a whole lot of information, technics or really anything which can make you successful.
- Life isn't short but it is finite - if I want to look back on my life and be able to say that it was amazing I need to learn how to be present in the moment -> learn how to concentrate! - There is the mind and there is awareness ○ Awareness travels to different areas of the mind (think of it as a "ball of light" ○ The mind doesn't move, it's awareness that travels ○ Your goal: control awareness ○ Concentration: ability hold awareness in a certain area of the mind - Things we can do - Focus on doing ONE THING AT THE TIME ○ Start bit by bit, it's a mental muscle that you need to build day by day - For example, give your spouse undivided attention for two hours a day - Instead, we just practice being distracted all-day - Have empathy, patience and compassion with yourself while you're working on building concentration, it will be worth it! ○ The rewards are far greater than the effort put into it - Truly experience the moments in your life
omg this was so important for me cause I am 18 years old and I am preparing for getting into medical college and i struggle with concentration and i beat myself up for it. thank you for such a powerful message. i will practice concentration with my books daily and update you when i get into a medical college 💐💐
Great video, can we take time also to appreciate how good the communication between Jim and Dandapani was?, I am not sure if it's because of their concentration or empathy since they are very similar in a lot of ways, but is cool to watch two persons talk without interruption listening with respect and commenting on the topic at the same time
There are many things I need to work on, but one thing is focusing on what I am reading! I get so distracted while reading, how fast am I reading, I have to get through this book, am I reading correctly, how can I read faster etc., etc. I focus on all things related to reading except the very thing I am reading, funny, talking about Monkey Mind!! Loved the podcast, thank you for being there!
His teaching taught me alot ! I was able to focus more on every thing i develop great will power . I downloaded his app pay for a lifetime subscription and i would say it was worth !!!! Every course every message impacted my life and i can really tell im a better version of my self now thanks to Dandapani. :D
It has video of dandapani he recorded himself teaching of course from basic of learning focus to other courses then quizez and reflections and more courses its alot of stuff dandapani really made this app really good . At first i was thinking should i get it because i already learned the focus from his other videos then i did bought it and i glad i did this one was completely way better you will learn new stuff every single time i was amazed me and my wife even watch the video together . It is like dandapani talking to you in person and teaching you . You wont regret getting it as long you applied it to your life. I work 3 to 11 i was lazy before to do something else in the morning but now coz i dandapani i go to the gym every morning , do all errands in the morning take care of my wife and kids cooks before going to work , then work like my body doing it easily. My will power and focus at work boosted as well. You wont regret it.
someone told me once that cant improve my concentrtion..i either have it or not ... thank you ...its a game changer! we can learn how to concentrate , we need to practice it to get better .. :)
I always listen to music while studying i'm doing two things at a time 🤔🤔🤔 for me to be able to remember what i read i have to write it down then i won't forget
Your brain is not moving, it is your awareness that moves to a different part of your brain. AHA Moment! Concentration is the ability to make yourself aware of one thing for a long period of time.
For a guy who claims to be extremely present, he seems not so focused on the dialogue rather than just telling what he wants to say. I still think his message is valuable.
Thanks for this video, for 30 yrs of my life I have trouble in my Focus ability that led to regrets of what I really want in life. This taught me that it is still never too late to do what you want to do in life, Thanks Jim for letting me know my worth and ability to restart my life and dream big again, Thank you Dandapandi for the learnings from you, believe me first time I had this intense focus on your advises, thank you, thank you, and God Bless both of you.
I will concentrate on guiding my students this week from how to concentrate on one exercise at the time trough all the exercises they have to complete. So there's going a lot of focused concentration for the next day's 😄 By the way... I didn't really understand where to publish or send the Screenshot of this video 😋
I think the example of focusing or concentrating on talking with a person without distraction ..is for the new generation who can't leave the phone even when they talk to friends. But with the old generation like me ..we spent our lives in talking without benefit hahaha ..I think practicing on reading ...or exercise or solving maths problems for 10 min first ...then increasing to 20 min ...and so on should work. I will try it. Thank you guys
I have been following you Sir and this video is really special. One can easily link it with your how to read one book in week masterclass. These videos are so helpful for ppl who are struggling with concentration and want to learn it . Thanks alot. Keep sharing more videos like these. Love from India.

there is a focus light be like that focus light only focus at one task when your task is completed then focus on others & do the things you love.

Superb idea,thanks for sharing
These are the real influencers that our society needs...👏🙌💪
This is a life lesson. All kids should. Be taught this essential advice. Thanks teachers.
Concentration lends itself over to much better decisions down the long road straight ahead...
When Dandapani said, "do thing one at a time" I was studying at the same time listening to this. Ooops.
U r not alone 🤣
Same
eating breakfast, drinking coffee, listening and now typing this.... ehm?!
😂
@@CryingCowboys so u not enjoy nothing :)
I tinker with Python programming, I always start off with small projects, to start the way to finish, completely much bigger Python projects, and I just simply watch the hours flash by, while in deep thought; plotting and planning my project to a working, finished wonder. Learn what you aspire to become, and let the inspiration take you there. Nothing is ever free. Hard work is the only key. Because if you truly enjoy what you are doing, then it won't be hard work at all. Sometimes it's challenging, but you wouldn't want it any other way. To achieve anything, you must first of all things. You must believe in yourself and follow your heart. Use your brain, but always feel it in your heart first, or it simply won't work. Turn concentration into ponder. That's simply how I achieve that level to be able to start something and complete it, no matter how much time it takes to tinker away at it. I will always finish what I start. Because to me, computer science is what triggers my ability to sit for hours and think, plot and plan my project from start to finish...
Jim I woke up today and asked for some guidance on focus/concentration. This popped up. Hocus Pocus Focus. Thank you both!
I am going to practise in order to succeed at my flight school. It is the reason why I listen jim kwik in the first place and he show me a GREAT way of doing that.
If you are planning to be a pilot...I’d really love it if you practice concentration...especially if I’m on the plane....xo
@@artwithmamafairybreadd 😂
All the best 😀
Now this makes so much sense why we all get distracted even without trying because we practice it...
Why are you reading my comment? You are doing MULTITASKING,
please Concentrate back to FOCUS.
No
Im reading after watching it😊😊😊
@@priyaraj1175 good :)

Hahahahaha😂😂😂😂😂 Yeah..I will do right now..!!😂😂😂😂
Wow...I never really thought that I've been teaching myself distraction my whole life.....wow that just really opened my eyes.
First time to know dandapan i study him in one of my psychology course at University.
I just made a screenshot of this video. I will concentrate on my daily eating routines - and stay fully present during the feeding. This is my first step in practicing concentration. Thank you Jim and Dandapani.
I concentrate by using some amazing simple tricks
1. Wake up early at sharp 04:00am (I discovered some amazing tricks that help me a lot to get up early)
2. Decipline yourself take a look at your to do list
3. Fresh up
4. Most important -Meditate (daily practice of meditation helped me in my studies a lot I can concentrate more and I m able to absorb more)
5. Read books daily or listen to audio books☺my favorite
6. Never study for more than an hour. Take short breaks, fresh ur mind and get ready to hustle a little more
Yes I also follow this routine.. 😍
Thnks for penning it down. I know what i hv to do.. I sit for it.. But just dont do it.. I m suffering.
@@ashyskk 🙃install 'forest' I recently installed this app it will help you to stay away from your phone while working, u can plant trees in ur virtual forest and their is also rain music to stay focused, if u touch the phone until ur decided time was not over your tree will not bloom and u will have to plant an unhealthy tree in your forest.if you want u can try it🏅🌈
@@glow-upjournal292 I installed & it did helped a bit. Thank you for suggetion .certainly taking very small steps. ie 25 min.what are you preparing for !?

I can’t believe, how valuable on the each of your words. I think this is the most educated program in social media in the world. Who are listening this. They are very lucky to get next one.
Two legends at one place
I fucking love his mindset and this is the second video that I’ve watch. I wish every woman and mother would watch this and get rid of “multitasking mindset” eventually.
I am working on bringing back my focus on present moment when I stray away ,thank you both awesome God bless 🙏❤️ love peace joy to all 🙏 ❤️ Oneness.
@nalini best of luck
You got it girl...you can do this .....
Life and time are the two best teacher
Life teaches you value of time
Time teaches you how short life is to waste time
I love the fact that even camera goes out of focus during this video.
Great content as always Jim and Danapani.
@dandapani @jimkwik my one week challenge will be in my studies. I love Political science. I study it daily for 4 hrs.
Lately, i'm doing one wonderful practice to learn concentration: i'm standing on nails. That's what shuts my brain down and lets me drive through my life.
Great. Landed on this talk because I was reading an article and after five minutes I had no idea what I had read. As a child I was told to concentrate, it was far too abstract an idea for me, an I thought if I screwed up my eyes I was concentrating.
"Do one thing at a time" & I was reading comments while watching the video... 😜
Me too😅
I laughed a lot man😂😂
Lol same here, cheers to us :)
lol, I put it on 2x speed and scrolled to the comments only about 7 seconds in the video. Saw this comment. I usually go to the comments after I increase the speed just to see if someone typed out some bullet points.
Me too...
Complete focus and concentration on my Radhakrishna
I say that all the time to my 7 year old son...”can u just focus PLEASE!” Right after I say it, I realize that I myself struggle to focus
I’ve been asking myself the last few months how to concentrate ?? And wallah! This video popped out! Thank you Jim for doing what you do & Dandapani for your wisdom! God bless you both
Kwik we people are so happy to have you. I learned tapping technique form the expert you brought which is so life changing. Do bring many experts. Bring many experts who spoke in Ted talk if pos.
Which video is that in
I’m going to concentrate whenever I’m reading a book/watching my daily videos like this one I just watched, going to concentrate in the studio when making music, going to concentrate when I’m on the charts and also go to concentrate when with family and friends and doing my chores at home 🏡
Waooo the two legends in a duo conversation, can't afford to miss.
i used to play video games while watching tv series. i managed to get distracted during a distraction. Awesome!
I've studied both of these amazing men. It's So great that they're collaborating on this video! I love the "ball of light" exercise from Dandipani. That was a huge revelation for me. He goes further into it in how own videos. Jim and his story are just absolutely mind-blowing as well. Things could have certainly gone in a different direction for him. But learning how to concentrate, and how to actually learn....in my opinion, literally saves his life. That's to you both for such sage advice!!
This video is AMAZING! Be honest who else’s mind wandered and got distracted by the end of the video??
That is BAD! 15 mins.…that was it! I’ll be strengthening my mental muscle every day!! 😅
Dandapani and Jim Kwik discuss the importance of concentration and provide tips on how to improve it. Some key points include:
Concentration is at the crux of all human success and endeavor.
Concentration is something that can be learned and practiced.
The ability to concentrate is essential for manifesting and creating what you want in life.
The first step in improving concentration is defining what it is: the ability to keep your awareness on one thing for an extended period of time.
Practice doing one thing at a time to improve concentration. For example, when speaking with a loved one, give them your undivided attention.
Develop empathy and patience with yourself in the process of improving concentration.
Technology is not inherently bad; it is our inability to exercise discipline around its use that is the problem.
Concentration is necessary for being present in all experiences and for being mindful.
Awareness can be visualized as a glowing ball of light that can travel to different areas of the mind.
To improve concentration, one can also practice meditation, set a timer to focus on one task for a set amount of time, or practice deep breathing to calm the mind and increase focus.
Overall, the conversation emphasizes the importance of concentration for success and happiness, and provides practical tips for improving it in daily life.
This is cool... My favorite dandapani garu with Jim Kwik... Love their words
Technology is good... I'm using it right now to watch these powerful life-changing lessons
Well said
Two genius together.. just wow
Your conversation made me concentrate on what you both guys say for 17 minutes straight. What a good start for me! More power Jim and Dandapani!
Both my true teachers wow at single platform🙏🏻💛
I came to RUclips to learn how to trade after listening to a guy on radio talk about the importance of investing and how he made $460,000 in 4 months from $160k. Somehow this video has helped shed light on some things, but I'm confused, I'm a newbie and I'm open to ideas.
Investing in stocks is a good idea, a good trading system would puts you through many days of success.
It is also possible to produce superior performance provided you do something different from the majority. However, most of us tend to pay more attention to the shiniest position in the market than to the cost of proper diversification
Having monitored my portfolio performance which has made a jaw dropping from $360k just the past two quarters alone, I have learned why experienced traders makes enormous returns from the seemingly unknown market.
Interesting. I have a lump sum of cash doing absolutely nothing at all in my bank account, I wanna get something started with it. You seem to be doing excellent for yourself, how did you achieve this?
Exactly, the trick is to diversify your investment, don't panic when everyone else do and invest consistently
It's almost like humans always have to learn more, above the knowledge they already have. Core knoweldges are focus, compassion, try hard, relax. With this we can achieve anything, learn anything and just pile up a whole lot of information, technics or really anything which can make you successful.
- Life isn't short but it is finite - if I want to look back on my life and be able to say that it was amazing I need to learn how to be present in the moment -> learn how to concentrate!
- There is the mind and there is awareness
○ Awareness travels to different areas of the mind (think of it as a "ball of light"
○ The mind doesn't move, it's awareness that travels
○ Your goal: control awareness
○ Concentration: ability hold awareness in a certain area of the mind
- Things we can do
- Focus on doing ONE THING AT THE TIME
○ Start bit by bit, it's a mental muscle that you need to build day by day
- For example, give your spouse undivided attention for two hours a day
- Instead, we just practice being distracted all-day
- Have empathy, patience and compassion with yourself while you're working on building concentration, it will be worth it!
○ The rewards are far greater than the effort put into it
- Truly experience the moments in your life
omg this was so important for me cause I am 18 years old and I am preparing for getting into medical college and i struggle with concentration and i beat myself up for it. thank you for such a powerful message. i will practice concentration with my books daily and update you when i get into a medical college 💐💐
Great video, can we take time also to appreciate how good the communication between Jim and Dandapani was?, I am not sure if it's because of their concentration or empathy since they are very similar in a lot of ways, but is cool to watch two persons talk without interruption listening with respect and commenting on the topic at the same time
ThankU Jim kwik for brought extraordinary souls on your channel
Amazing facts, sir! That's what I do everyday to keep me focus on what did I've achieved on.
There are many things I need to work on, but one thing is focusing on what I am reading! I get so distracted while reading, how fast am I reading, I have to get through this book, am I reading correctly, how can I read faster etc., etc. I focus on all things related to reading except the very thing I am reading, funny, talking about Monkey Mind!! Loved the podcast, thank you for being there!
His teaching taught me alot ! I was able to focus more on every thing i develop great will power . I downloaded his app pay for a lifetime subscription and i would say it was worth !!!! Every course every message impacted my life and i can really tell im a better version of my self now thanks to Dandapani. :D
What's the name of the app pls
@@passiveincome-vl3mt dandapani: learn to focus
It has video of dandapani he recorded himself teaching of course from basic of learning focus to other courses then quizez and reflections and more courses its alot of stuff dandapani really made this app really good . At first i was thinking should i get it because i already learned the focus from his other videos then i did bought it and i glad i did this one was completely way better you will learn new stuff every single time i was amazed me and my wife even watch the video together . It is like dandapani talking to you in person and teaching you . You wont regret getting it as long you applied it to your life. I work 3 to 11 i was lazy before to do something else in the morning but now coz i dandapani i go to the gym every morning , do all errands in the morning take care of my wife and kids cooks before going to work , then work like my body doing it easily. My will power and focus at work boosted as well. You wont regret it.

someone told me once that cant improve my concentrtion..i either have it or not ... thank you ...its a game changer! we can learn how to concentrate , we need to practice it to get better .. :)
It was a great discussion between you and Dandapani, and I learnt a lot.
I just can't thank both of u enough...
I always listen to music while studying i'm doing two things at a time 🤔🤔🤔 for me to be able to remember what i read i have to write it down then i won't forget
Your brain is not moving, it is your awareness that moves to a different part of your brain. AHA Moment!
Concentration is the ability to make yourself aware of one thing for a long period of time.
Appreciate the 2 brain and mind Teachers 🙌🏽
For a guy who claims to be extremely present, he seems not so focused on the dialogue rather than just telling what he wants to say.
I still think his message is valuable.
"See people as an opportunity to concentrate "
Thanks for this video, for 30 yrs of my life I have trouble in my Focus ability that led to regrets of what I really want in life. This taught me that it is still never too late to do what you want to do in life, Thanks Jim for letting me know my worth and ability to restart my life and dream big again, Thank you Dandapandi for the learnings from you, believe me first time I had this intense focus on your advises, thank you, thank you, and God Bless both of you.
Oh my god. Im so excited for this. Two of the most amazing people together!
I love to do work around the house and play Jim Kwik or Dandapani! I feel so much better.
When they've shaked their hands at the end i was like "nooooooooo"
thanks so much jim. i couldn't get good grades at school because i simply could not concentrate at school; reading, studying etc.
I will concentrate on guiding my students this week from how to concentrate on one exercise at the time trough all the exercises they have to complete. So there's going a lot of focused concentration for the next day's 😄
By the way... I didn't really understand where to publish or send the Screenshot of this video 😋
:)
Focusing is important and learning how to do so takes time , you are at the right place
It’s so sad when we are trying to learn to concentrate and do one thing at a time .
One of our job scope is “ able to multitask “ 😞
Time mgmt.
I think the example of focusing or concentrating on talking with a person without distraction ..is for the new generation who can't leave the phone even when they talk to friends. But with the old generation like me ..we spent our lives in talking without benefit hahaha ..I think practicing on reading ...or exercise or solving maths problems for 10 min first ...then increasing to 20 min ...and so on should work. I will try it. Thank you guys
Thank you for the awesome video 😊🙏
I live in NYC and like he said it's never totally silent. So I usually listen to frequency music for meditation to help.
I have been following you Sir and this video is really special. One can easily link it with your how to read one book in week masterclass. These videos are so helpful for ppl who are struggling with concentration and want to learn it . Thanks alot. Keep sharing more videos like these. Love from India.
Awesome jim kwik i do love you much ...God bless you
To improve your concentration -
Practice doing one thing in a time!
wow am very lucky to see my two great mentors together
