Lots of ways but one I'll mention is: To Do List. One per day. You put the most important task first. Then second and so forth. You may not get them all done but you'll surely get more done that if you had no  prioritized list. This may seem too simple but guess what one of the richest men in USA once said? He was asked how he gets so much accomplished; how was he so successful, etc. One of his answers was: My daily TO DO LIST. Think about it. Try it.

We have to put our mind into whatever we do 'cause take this instance for example. If u r sitting to study and u r thinking of ur favourite TV program u r better of watching TV  than doing the thing u r struggling to do in ur mind.\n\nU must be fcused in what u want to do that is all concentrating is about.

You want your weaknesses to be your strengths as well.  You can say I tend to be too detail oriented, but not so much that I lose sight of the big picture.

Set up a schedule for the day and focus on your activities. Some people will be looking at you, but only because they are waiting for their appointment and have nothing better to do. Make sure there are magazines and things like that for people to look at. Try not to let it bother you-just keep busy and keep doing a good job!

the best bet is to sit up front (as much fun as that isn't) and take a lot of notes. also try and ask as many questions as you can. those things always help to keep my attention.

Slow down and don't say the first thing that pops into your head.  Think before you speak and think before you act.  Learn about and talk about serious matters.

There is not way to do that. You need to find a way to slow things down. Take a deep breath and try focusing on only one issue at a time. Even if you have to delegate a certain amount of time to each problem. When time is up move on to the next issue. It might help if you made a list of all the decisions you have to make. Then take them one at a time. Only you can allow yourself to be rushed into making hasty decisions.

Focus on yourself. That doesn't mean that you should become self-centered, but it means that if you spend too much time worrying what other people think, then stop.\n\nI know that it's easier said than done, but be yourself no matter what. It's hard, but it's worth it.\n\nSometimes buying a new shirt or getting a haircut gives me a boost of confidence. It's only temporary, but sometimes it's the boost I need to get working on other areas of my life.

Make a list and prioritize it.  Focus on the things that you really need to get done as deadlines approach.\n\nBut don't forget to schedule a little "me time" too.

prioritize your tasks. tackle the immediate hard ones first. you will have more satisfaction knowing the hard one had been done. less stress doing the easier tasks. you dont have to finish everything in one sitting though. can you delegate responsibilities? be happy.

If you attention is only on one thing how can you be distracted?  You can be distracted from what you have your attention on tho. Not sure I understand your question.

Keep a little notepad & pen with you, & every time something pops into your head; write it down.\nBegin setting a fixed time, daily, when you do thiese lttle things. This will discipline you to manage your time better while developing some organizational skills, too.

If you're dealing with comprehension, try picking out the information you  think is very important because there are many sentences that talk nothing but crap. Just try reading very slowly, and concentrate. Don't think about anything else while reading because it disrupts information from being memorized this is why some people can't remember what they have read. If that doesn't help, find a book, lock yourself in a bedroom and read it out loud just like what a professional speaker would do. Trust me, it worked for me. Try to imagine there's an audience and it's up to you what you want to do next.
