Focus!

Is your concentration iffy at the best of times? Are you finding the simple act of reading this mail rather taxing on your attention span?

You aren’t alone. Huge numbers of people find it difficult to focus for long periods of time and that in itself can cause stress, making it even harder to focus. It’s a terribly vicious circle.

It can be tempting to just lump yourself in the ADHD category and decide that you’ll never be able to work your way through the entirety of Harry Potter. That, however, is the easy way out and you might be selling yourself short.

There are many, many ways in which your health can affect your attention. Menopause, sleep deprivation or hormone imbalances can throw off your concentration completely.

Find out what’s affecting your attention.

Never skimp on these, even when you're broke.
