Stay Focused & Beat Computer Fatigue - Part 3

Hopefully you have found the first 2 tips in this article series helpful to make working at the computer less stressful.

But another common problem for many people is how to stay focused and complete projects without getting distracted by the sometimes boring tasks of repetition required while working at the computer.

Or on the other side of the coin, overwhelm from too much too do, too many ideas, not enough time etc.

Add to that the usual distractions that present themselves fairly easily while working on the computer, checking email, hopping into a forum to check the latest posts or just searching for information and getting distracted into watching videos on you-tube.

These kinds of distractions make it increasingly hard to stay focused on that important project. Which leads us to our next tip...

Tip #3 - Get Your Brain In Sync

What if you could put on a pair of headphones and within 10 minutes be totally focused on the project at hand, accomplish more in 60 minutes than you do all day and have something to show for your time spent?

Yes this is possible, and I use this technology myself.

Scientists have discovered a revolutionary technology that allows you to synchronize your brainwaves to achieve a desired state - or a feeling.

Put on a pair of headphones, listen and enjoy the effects in minutes. That's it, it couldn't be easier.

Scientists have actually been playing around with this technology for years and the fruit of this is that there are many brainwave synchronization programs available for purchase in CD and download forms on the internet.

You may have heard about brainwave synchronization and perhaps even use these types of downloads and CD's to help you relax, deal with stress, meditate and sleep.

Well the wizards at Holothink have created a new instantly down loadable MP3 (with a free demo!) called Laser Focus, that will help you enjoy optimal levels of focus and concentration and put you into hyper-productive zone.

So how can a brainwave program help you to stay focused and get more accomplished?

Well first we need to know a little bit more about brainwave states.

The Four Brainwaves

Thinking back to that science class in high school you probably remember learning that your brain, besides being made of mostly water, also generates electricity.

It's only a very small amount, but scientists have actually speculated that if you could put enough brains together and harness enough brain power you might be able to light a flashlight bulb.

Electrical activity emanating from the brain is displayed in the form of brainwaves.

There are four categories of these brainwaves, ranging from the most to least activity.

Beta is the most active of the brainwaves, and this happens when the brain is aroused and actively engaged in mental activities. Beta waves are a characteristic of a very focused and active state of mind.

The next frequency of brain waves is Alpha. Alpha brainwaves are usually present when a person has completed a task and takes a break to refresh or briefly rest.

Perhaps you have been in a strong beta state while finishing a report and then you take a break and go for a walk which will put you into an alpha state.

Next is theta brainwave state. A person will start to experience this state when they are doing something more mundane and repetitious such as the somewhat hypnotic state caused by freeway driving, or daydreaming.

This is actually the best state for creativity breakthroughs, good ideas are more likely to appear when the brain has slowed a little because the tasks you are doing are so automatic that your brain is prone to a flow of ideas.

The final brainwave state is delta, and this is where the brainwaves are slowest and this state is present during dreamless sleep.

So putting it all together you may have began to realize that if you could keep your brain in the right brainwave state while you are working it would be easier to concentrate and you would be able to stay focused and be much more productive.

Likewise a program that induced theta brainwaves might help you be more creative, and of course other programs make use of the different brainwave states to induce restful and meditative states.

Holothink actually has programs available in all these areas but I can't stress enough how helpful the Laser Focus download is for anyone struggling to get focused while working on the computer.

The first time I used the Laser program I actually wrote most of this article series, and it was amazing how much easier it was as I am not a natural writer.

The ideas seemed to flow and the next steps in the thought process just naturally organized themselves.

It was an amazing feeling of accomplishment and this has not been just my experience.

What a great solution for writer's block!

Other users of Laser Focus have reported similar results, and there are great stories of people getting projects done that they had been putting off, getting their desks cleared off and being super productive.

As I mentioned before, staying focused and productive is a pretty common problem, and some one has finally come up with a simple solution that works.

What could be easier than popping on a pair of headphones and listening while you work?

Laser Focus is very unobtrusive, it has a humming sound that I turn down far enough that I can just barely hear it.

It keeps quietly humming away, just playing in the background and keeping me targeted on what I am doing.

So if you are tired of trying to concentrate and stay focused while working at the computer, and if you feel like your productivity leaves something to be desired, get your free demo of Laser Focus and find out for yourself how it helps put you into a super focused state of productivity.

You don't have to suffer any more from computer fatigue or getting easily distracted when there are such simple solutions available that are so easy, effective and inexpensive.

And just think how much better you will feel, how much more you will get done, and how much more enjoyable it will be working at the computer once you put some of these simple solutions in place.
