For over forthy years as an instructor I have been working with people trying to help them improve both their physical and mental abilities. Included in my training I emphasize the importance of concentrating and focusing on what they are doing. Repeating myself over and over saying concentrate on what you are doing focus on what you want to achieve.
Over the last few years I came to realize that people's ability to stay focused and concentrate on what they are doing has significantly been reduced. I began to think why this was happening and came to the conclusion that people tend to neglect their mental training in preference for the physical, because it is easier and they get fast results. Just take a look in a newspaper or magazine most of the advertisements on heath matters are focused on physical health. Look better, lose weight, gain more muscle etc.
Today's society is stressful and physical training is very important to help alleviate stress. But there must be a balance between the mind; body and spirit one cannot exist without the other. The ability to concentrate on what you want to do and focus on how to do it helps relieve tension which in turn calms you down, leading to a less stressful lifestyle. To this end I started 3C teaching people to focus and concentrate on what they are doing. If you succeed in your goals then you become more relaxed and which in turn leads to an improved healthy life style. Back up
