how do we actually stop scrolling the funny thing about this video is that only around 15% of the people watching this video will look through the whole video interesting because the people that will click off this video are the ones that need this advice the most if I was like most content creators in this Niche I would give you the top five tricks to never scroll again and I would make this video really entertaining with a fast-paced editing and we would leave this video feeling really motivated but we would most likely not stop scrolling we
would actually leave the video being more addicted and even more drawn to our phone because that video would just further solidify our social media addiction but this is not that type of video we already know that scrolling shortens our attention span it's the main reason why we can't sit down to be productive the reason we find reading or working boring is probably not because the book you're reading is bad or the work we're doing is boring it's because we have short attention span so we can't focus hard enough on the task at hand we want
to stop scrolling most likely because we have something more more importantly that we want to get done we want to be more focused when studying or working on our business project and there's actually only one thing that we need to do to help us become more focused and that thing is increase our attention span so how do we actually increase our attention span attention span is like a muscle and similar to how we train our biceps to become bigger and stronger through repeatedly training it we can do exactly the same thing with our attention every
time we meditate we go to the mental gym and we do some bicep curls for our tension span I've created this video as an exercise just like meditation helps us increase our attention span this video will try to do the same thing after you've watched this video you will have done a few bicep curls for your brain so don't do something else while watching this video don't scroll down to the comments don't open up another tab put the video on full screen and focus all your attention on my voice our lizard brain will try to
tell us that we need to be somewhere else we need to watch this other video or we need to do this other thing but don't listen to it you don't need to be anywhere else then right here for the upcoming minutes have this in mind while watching the rest of the video listen if you can catch your liser brain telling you to click off if you can catch it telling you to click off but you stay anyway you will have done a few bicep CS for your attention span and your focus will have improved you
clicked on this video to regain your attention and this is how the people that will click off this video to watch something more stimulating basically admits that they don't want to train their attention which is okay except it makes them Hypocrites because they clicked on a video titled how to actually stop scrolling in because they wanted to become more focused and clicked off to watch something more stimulating so don't be that type of guy please there's one thing that we can do every day for just a few minutes after we've woken up that will drastically
increase our attention span and will as a result make us more focused individuals that thing is meditation sit down comfortably in your room with no distractions and just focus on your breath this is without a doubt the exercise our generation needs the most so let's actually test this for the next 30 seconds just focus on your [Music] [Music] breath good job you've just done a few bicep curls for your brain which has improved your attention span a little bit further I remember when I first tested it around a year ago I felt kind of weird
about it because I thought that that was just things that only monks or yoga moms did because I didn't really get it then when I understood the benefits of it and I saw why it actually would help me make more progress towards my goal of building a successful business I started doing it daily for just 3 minutes at first which was really hard but then quickly as I did it more and more I became better at it I started to increase the time from 3 minutes to 5 minutes and then from 5 minutes to 10
minutes and now even 20 minutes where I just sit in my room with no stimulation no music nothing except just me focusing on my breath and as a result it has helped me make huge progress towards my goal because now I'm able to actually sit down and work which before I meditated was completely impossible so start meditating I know we may have preconc ideas of meditation but those are just doubts making our lizer brain stronger and stronger so make the conscious decision right now to not listen to those thoughts I recommend that you do this
first thing in the morning and you only have to do it for like 3 minutes to start seeing a difference in your focus don't listen to your brain telling you all the reasons why you can't it's weird it's cringe or any other thoughts that you might be getting now it's not weird and cringe to focus on improving yourself it's necessary because this is the step in the right direction that will take you closer towards your goal of getting better grades of making more money of being more productive try this experiment today just meditate for 3
minutes every morning and I can guar guantee you that you will see a drastic improvement in your focus good job you've now finished this little meditation your mind may have wandered away thinking about something else during the video but you've stayed maybe you think that you haven't done this in the right way or you've done something wrong during the film you haven't trust me whatever you thought about during this video that doesn't matter what matters is that you've stayed throughout the whole film and youve followed through on your promise and that's what matters that's all
