hi,
frd concentration can onlt be increased with the help of yoga..
take some medition classes and later on practice ourself. this will really help you and provide a base to absorb the things. try to understand the thing instead to crame them..

1. Meditation (Well accepted/advised)
2. Learning & Solving Rubik's Cube (Very powerful way)
3. Thinking/writing about a particular theme of interest

Power of Focus is not merely limited to getting your goal achieved single mindedly. It is to enable oneself to be able to do anything with utmost concentration and achieve the intended result.

Now, your answer. How to increase the power of focus. I have personally realised the following methods to be helpful:

Assess your current need. Where are you at present? What is your immediate need? Money, career, relationship etc. What are you going to do to fulfill this need? If already doing, what is way to improve? And if your need is clear power of focus will be stronger.
Love what you do. if anybody is lacking focus in his work that means either he is loosing his interest in that work or he is not doing a work he is genuinely interested in. Let your situation be either of these two. You know focusing on your current job will take you higher and help you in fulfilling your current need. And who knows…It will also enable you to take your passionate job too.
Do what you love. Very few people are lucky to do a job of their passionate choice like Actors, singers or other creative people. But who's stopping you from doing what you love in your personal spare time! Do what you love. This will boost your power of focus in all sphere of your life besides cheering you up.
Learn something that teases your mind. Computer Programming, solving Su-Doku puzzles, cross words, learning to play your favourite Musical instruments, Playing chess or simply Reading Non-Fiction books will definitely make your mind more agile and sharp which definitely will boost your focus.
Meditate. Starting your day with sitting 10 minutes in silence in early morning will definitely increase power of your focus
Be yourself. Realise your uniqueness in this world. What is your strength! What is your USP. Same can not be of others. So where ever you are, contribute upto your full satisfaction level. This will boost your morale and focus.
Be organised. If someone is not organised, his focus will automatically be distracted and weak. So, make time table, to-do list and set your daily goals. If you are able to achieve these small goals daily, your power of focus will compound. You will be a great organiser too
Do one thing at a time. Don't multitask at one moment. Schedule every task priority wise and complete them. This will make you a accomplished Task Master increasing power of your focus. You will not panic at a moment which a major cause of weak focus.

If life is like a car, than ask yourself, which is the most important aspect of a car:

Washing and waxing the car
Make it soundproof
Repair every scratch on the paint job
It must be purple
The tires must be black and shiny
The seats must be leather
The air-cond must be working
The sound system must be working
The car must be able to start and run
If you say that the most important thing about a car is that it must be able to start and run, then you are right. All other answers are secondary.

Well, the right answer about life is to have the temperament that empowers you to succeed in all aspects of life: family, career, marriage, parenting, health, fitness, and social responsibility.

Focus means out of the hundreds of books in your home library, if you have time to study just one book, which book will it be?

I’ll will choose this book:

The Snowball: Warren Buffet and the Business of Life by Alice Schroeder

This biography of Warren Buffet illustrates the most important factor that you must possess in order to lead a triumphant life, and that is the right temperament. This defines my FOCUS - just one book, just one factor that makes everything else possible.

THE RIGHT TEMPERAMENT comprises the character traits of:

Patience
Curiosity
Diligence
Focus
Thinking very long term

You can use the following simple techniques to enhance your concentration.

Building the muscle of Focus
Just like to build biceps you workout with weights gradually increasing them. You should use the highly effective “Pomodoro Method”.

According to this divide your task into chunks of 25 minutes followed by a 5 minutes break. Repeat this for 3–4 times followed by a 15 minutes break.

The 25 minutes should be absolutely focused without any distractions. Put your phone on silent and keep it away from your eyes.

Meditate
Take out sometime from your busy life to do nothing and sitting at a place calmly and listening to your breathing and heart beat.

Know when you are distracted
Millions of thoughts keep running through our brains. Any particular thought can make you daydream stealing away your concentration. Whenever you start thinking about any distracting thought, take a second and tell yourself that you have to actually work.

Most important -

Now that you know about these useful tricks,still you'll continue your old habits and won't change.

Remember habits take time to form. So in the initial days keep reminding yourself that you have work on improving your focus and follow these tricks. That's it…

Hope it helps….
