Concentration: Learning to focus - Takeaways
Redefines focus as quiet trust in Self 2
• Concentration is a practiced skill, not forced
• Let go of distractions, don’t push them out.
• Focus on what you observe, not what you should do.
• Real focus happens in the present, not past/future.
• You don’t try to enter the zone, it just happens.
True concentration = quiet attention, not mental strain.
