How can I improve my concentration?

How can I improve my reading concentration in noisy places?

  • When I'm reading a book I need to be in a very quiet place, but I've noticed that some people can concentrate whilst surrounded by noise, how can I get like them?

  • Answer:

    Change your parents, dear heart. Or wear earplugs.  (This has proven to be easier in my case.) You can't know what makes someone else able to concentrate when you know you cannot.  That would be the "parent" thing.  Maybe they are deaf. You can change parts of your environment.  I carry earplugs in my purse, all the time.  I can get "quiet" and you may not be able to see that my "quiet" is due to earplugs.

I can't do anything without lots of noise around me; it's to drown out the noise in my head by directing my ears to hear (for instance) the TV or Video, because if I try to read in silence, my thoughts are racing.People have different levels of comfort and ability; we all have different processes going on and we gravitate toward what makes us comfortable.
