The Power of Concentration.

When I was a child, I saw how a magnifying glass could burn a piece of paper, when the rays of the sun were focused through it. The fire could start only when the sun's rays were concentrated to a small point. 

When the magnifying glass was moved too far away or too close to the paper, the rays were not focused enough and nothing happened. This experience describes vividly the power of concentration.

This power can be described as focused attention. It is the ability to direct the attention to one single thought or subject, to the exclusion of everything else.

When our mind is focused, our energies are not dissipated on irrelevant activities or thoughts. This is why developing concentration is essential to anyone who aspires to take charge of his or her life. This skill is essential for every kind of success. Without it, our efforts get scattered, but with it, we can accomplish great things.

Concentration has many uses and benefits. It assists in studying and understanding faster, improves the memory, and helps in focusing on any task, job, activity or goal, and achieving it more easily and efficiently. It is also required for developing psychic powers, and is a powerful tool for the efficient use of creative visualization.
 

When this ability is developed, the mind obeys us more readily and does not engage in futile, negative thoughts or worries. We gain mental mastery and we experience true peace of mind.

This ability also plays an important role in meditation. Without it, the mind just jumps restlessly from one thought to another, not allowing us to meditate properly.

Do you now realize, why it is very important and worthwhile to develop and improve the ability to concentrate?

To develop this power you need to train and exercise it. Forget all your excuses about not having the time or being too busy. Do not say that the circumstances are not appropriate or that you cannot find a quiet place to exercise. With a little planning, desire and motivation you can always find the time to exercise each day, no matter how busy you are.

Vitu vidogo tunavyofanya kila siku ndiyo vitatufanya kuwa na kupata yale makubwa,
hapa ikiwa hata haya madogo ni makubwa,maana kama tutafikiri kwa mara ya kwanza mwanaume akamfuata mwanadada na kumweleza kuhusu upendo hiyo ikiwa ni mwanzo pengine mwanadada akiwa bado hajaanza kuridhia ama ikiwa ni vile akitaka kuona kikubwa,maana yaweza kuwa ikitegemeka kuonekana kizuri,hapo ikiwa mtu akaendelea na kuweza kuonyesha zaidi ndiyo hapo tunasema amefanikiwa kwa jambo kubwa ambalo limetokana na kile kidogo kilichoongeza kidogo.maana yaweza kuwa mapendo yameonekana kuwa ni makubwa ,na hapo ndiyo furaha huwepo pia.

Unaweza kukatazwa kwa kile na jambo unaloweza kuwa ukilifanya,
hapa ikiwa lilikuwa na furaha kwa upande wako,ikiwa siku tu katika upande mmoja,kama mwanadamu anatoa ukweli ndani yake ana haki ya kupata ukweli ndani ya maisha yake,cha muhimu mara zote huwa kwa mtu mwenyewe,sio kiafya,kifedha,family na hata vengine vya thamani,tunaweza kufikiri kwa nini watu wanaona kama kuna michanganyo mingi katika kutafuta kweli,hapo tunawezakuchanganywa,ikiwa kwa mwanzo tuliangalia mahala pamoja

Katika kukuwa pia inatupasa kujua ni wapi unaelekea,utafanya lini na nini katika maisha yako,
utakuwakatika hali gani katika afya,na hii yote inatokana na malengo makubwa yanayotokana na akili bila mwili,maana mwili baadaye unashirikishwa,kama hatutawekeza katka akili zetu hatutakuwa ya kinamna moja inapaswa kufikiri ni namna gani tutafanya,pengine ni baada ya kufikiri,na katika kujiinua katika maisha ni lazima kufikiri  tofauti,ikawa pale ikajulikana ni namna gani unavyofanya,na baada ya hilo swali likaja ni namna gani unavyofanyavizuri,pengine watu wakafikiria ni namna gani ulifikiria vizuri.

Kuna njia nyingi za kuwa na kukuwa katika furaha unayohitaji,
ni pale utakapotaka kufanya na kumaliza maisha yako,kuna mengi amabayo yapo katika dunia hii,na ili kuyamaliza sio lazima kufanya yote,ni kufanya lile litakalo kupatia furaha,pengine kwa muda huo au ikafikirika maisha yote,maana imani itumike hapo,inapasa kufikiri ni namna gani tunaweza kujilinda wenyewe,katika maisha yetu jambo kubwa tunalofanya ni kuangalia yale ya mbele,pengine hapo tutayafikiria,
na hapo matendo yakasemeke ya kuwa ilifikirikaje,kila siku jaza lile zuri katika maisha yako,
ikiwa kidogo kidogo na baadaye utafurahia kweli ya maisha yako.
