    avoid thinking locally and specifically and practice thinking globally, objectively and abstractly, and increased self-control should follow.

  • Summary: how to get things doneHere's a summary of the main conclusions from all the studies discussed:To avoid procrastinating on a task, focus on its details and use self-imposed deadlines.To stick to a task, while actually carrying it out, now it is beneficial to keep the ultimate, abstract goal in mind.When evaluating progress on a hard task, when the chance of failure is high, stay focused on the details of the task.Once tasks are easier or the end is in sight, a more abstract, goal focus is once again the psychological approach to choose.

  • We had also agreed that we would produce such a paper to inform the work of the European Union Mature project which is looking at knowldge maturing and developing Personal and Organisational Learning and Management Environments. It is a longish paper and covers such issues as: new ways of learning using Web 2.0 schools deschooling society workbased learning and the social shaping of work and technology organisational networks and communities of practice Personal Learning Emvironments the future of universties informal learning knowledge development and sharing We were given a wide brief to look at what might happen up to 2025 and what developments we thought were likely and what were desireable. We have used the opportunity to think a little more freely than is often possible within the scope of traditional academic papers.

    This article offers some non-medicated ideas and techniques to help us focus and concentrate on what we are doing. I had to read this carefully, because I often found myself trapped in a mental battle preventing me from being able to concentrate on what I have to do. We know how much of a problem this is. Sometimes the problem is simply fatigue, nutrition (valid causes), but other times, it isn't. This article offers some practical ideas that people can do at home, who may not be able to attend a seminar, etc. This is for the person who just wants try some things that may be able to help them concentrate right away. For example, it provides advise on how to modify your environment, nutrition (water, breakfast, and exercise), avoid multitasking when you need to focus, switch between high and low attention tasks, breaks, walks, etc. Thought this article was very helpful because although our issues may be more complicated than what this article suggests, the information and recommendations in it I believe is conducive for a positive attitude, something I think is critical to being able to focus and concentrate.
