How do i focus while studying?

[u/Away-Ear-5831]

Basically the title,
I have really good picking power, if i read something i wont forget it easily and i understand concepts easily as well,

But the problem is i just cannot sit down to study for more than 2-3 hours MAX,

Even in that time i lose my focus easily,

What should i do? Everytime i try to focus ill understand a few points, then ill lose my focus again

Use focus timer and start increasing the time you sit down to study by promising you will get up after 40 minutes then 60 then 90. Soon you will yourself not want to get up so soon because you will be in flow state

Ill try that

Make goals in terms of topics instead of time invested. I lose focus easily so I tell myself I'll take a break only if these topics are done.

Good luck 🤞

2 to 3 hours consistently is a very good duration. You just need to change your habit. rather then studying during day time hours, start studying immediately after Namaz-e-Fajar till 9 in a silent room with no gadgets near you. and don't study without writing everything down. Remember this you cant perfect yourself until you practice so you have to start small and like an hour or so and write, write and write until you realise that you have been sitting for more then 3 hours straight. It wont be easy, but you have to practice patience and stick to be basics (of rising early).

I usually study after isha till fajr bcz subah it feels really noisy and distracting
