How to increase your attention span by using this simple technique

In the age of technology, people are losing the art of being mindful. We are constantly thinking about the past or the future. We can’t give our full attention to the task at hand. I am also like this. I can’t focus on a task for over 5 minutes. My mind wanders.

I am always trying to improve my concentration. I read motivational articles and self-help books. This afternoon, I was reading the book — The monk who sold his Ferrari. While reading, I came across this technique ‘head of the rose’ to improve one’s focus.

Head of the rose technique

The technique is quite simple and easy to use. You have to watch the rose and admire its beauty. Watch the head of the rose, watch the petals, watch those curls. While watching the rose, your entire focus should be on the rose.

This is quite a difficult task. At the start, you won’t be able to focus on the rose for over 2–3 minutes because your mind is untrained. You will start having random thoughts after a couple of minutes. However, don’t give up and as you notice that your mind is wandering, bring your attention back to the rose.

After a couple of weeks, you will see improvements. You will observe that you can now focus for 5–7 minutes. And after 2–3 months, you will focus on the rose for 20 minutes at least.

If you don’t have a rose, there is no problem. You can use any other object and admire its beauty. Do it every single day and focus all your attention on the object for as long as you can.
