Concentration

Oh the irony of writing this post when I should be concentrating on writing my english essay, but I just had to get this out there. It'll be quick (don't worry Mom).

Often with boring things like school essays, I have a hard time wrapping my mind around what it is exactly that I'm trying to say. I will go off daydreaming about a story I'm writing, or something funny someone did, or a song that's stuck in my head, or a movie I want to watch again. Well, this has tormented me for years, I have a constantly wandering mind, but recently I have found a solution to my problem.

I know I can write a decent essay if I concentrate on it, so how do I concentrate? I listen to How To Train Your Dragon soundtrack.

It is the epitome of relaxation and concentration. Particularly "Forbidden Friendship". I just turn it on in a loop and I produce well crafted essays. The music is beautiful enough to keep my mind from wandering too much, but is not too distracting itself.

Just thought I'd throw this thought out into the void. Now back to my essay.
