Our ability to focus has limitations. Some time it work like charm and other times makes us dumb.



There are limitations to our ability to focus at a time. And we fail to notice all surroundings to it.

Let me tell you one story and how came across this suddenly.

Two weeks before, my bike was not operating properly. And I have to consult an automobile mechanic (as by his practice). He came and observed my bike, checked by turning it on-off several times. Checked the engine Carburettor.

And found that engine oil is very low. If you put 1 liter of engine oil then there should be more than 600-700 ml in the tank. This means the engine is eating out oil.

While checking fuel in the carburettor, he found out that water got mixed into the fuel tank. Due to this bike's ignition was working but failing to keep in running mode. We removed all the petrol from tank. I was planning in my head to use it for bike washing later.

We cleaned carburettor. Replaced engine oil. And told me to take a bike test. Everything working fine. We billed. The mechanic went on his way. I went to daily chore activities planned for holiday.

In the evening, I went to wash my bike. Started to search for wastage petrol water mixture.

It was missing from the place it was kept.

The mechanic must have taken it as their nature.

I lost to my focus to track the petrol bottles.

That's how the game of life works. You lose to notice something and someone gets benefitted from it.

If you watched a Focus movie starring Will Smith and Margot Robbie. You will get what i was trying to say. They explained very well, How mind and focus games work.

If you want to check your focus ability quickly or see what i was talking, please check this - Concentration Challenge - Can you count the bounces?

This why we need to train our ability to focus and concentrate. Hope you experienced this kind of activity to test your self.
