such as food rich in omega-3,
antioxidants, amino acids, and
vitamin E. Eat more vegetables, limit
calorie and saturated fat intake. Drink
green tea and wine, or grape juice in
moderation.
Sunlight
- sunlight and exercise can
sometimes go hand in hand.
Getting too little sunlight is not
good for your brain. Higher levels
of vitamin D in your system allow
you to perform better and can even
slow down the aging of your brain.

Building a strong support
system around you will enable
you to stay healthy mentally and

disorder called dementia.

Assessment
- begin by assessing just
how strong your mental
focus is at the present
moment before you start
working.
Eliminate distractions
- request to be left alone and set
aside a specific time and place, seek
out a calm or quite place where you
can work undisturbed. The library, a
private room in your house, or even
a quiet coffee shop might all be
good spots to try.
Limit focus
- Part of improving your mental
focus is all about making the
most of the resources you have
available. Stop multitasking and
instead give your full attention
to one thing at a time.
Live in the moment
- It is hard to stay mentally focused when you
are ruminating about the past, worrying about
the future, or tuned out of the present
moment for some other reason. It may take
some time but work on learning to truly live
in the moment. You cannot change the past
and the future has not happened yet, but what
you do today can help you avoid repeating
past mistakes and pave a path for a more
successful future.
Practice mindfulness
- Practicing mindfulness can
involve learning how to
meditate, but it can also be as
simple as trying a quick and
easy deep breathing exercise.
Take a short break
- Shift your attention to something
unrelated to the task at hand, even if
it is only for a few moments. These
short moments might mean that you
are able to keep your mental focus
sharp and your performance high
when you really need it.
Build your mental focus
- it is not something that will happen
overnight. it requires plenty of time and
practice to strengthen concentration
skills. By building your mental focus,
you will find that you are able to
accomplish more and concentrate on
the things in life that truly bring you
success, joy, and satisfaction.
Brainstorm
- A mind map is an easy way to
brainstorm thoughts organically
without worrying about order
and structure. It allows you to
visually represent the structure
your ideas to help with analysis
and recall.
