Went through a spell of good concentration - not anymore

I was watching movies in 2 sittings (this was excellent for me).

Now I can only watch 2 minutes then I get distracted

I can watch a film in one go no problem but I can’t play/concentrate on video games.

Yeah is a pretty ‘dense’ book. I think originally it was released chapter by chapter in a magazine

Yeah it may take me a while but i’ll get it read. Little by little.

hey guys, i tried to watch netflix tonight but nothing interested me despite some really good new christmas movies i havent seen,

i did however play a little GT sport on the ps4 on a dirt track which is rare and looked at singstar for a bit, ended playing tekken7, had the boom box on as well :slight_smile:

i’m hoping i can use it more but i cancelled my membership of netflix for the moment but it is a free trial anyway, if i want it again i will get it.

the problem with it is my attention span and also my eyes get sore, i find it very hard to feel any confidence that i will enjoy the films or the game, some are more appealing than others but i just dont feel i can watch them, maybe i’m just not in the mood lol

I also turned down the brightness, backlight and contrast as well as colour and i think it has helped, i’m thinking about just making it black and white :slight_smile:

Do you have a lot on your mind?

To watch a movie in 30 sittings would be a marathon to me. Good for you! :grinning:

I’m sorry for the change. It really depends on what it is as to how my concentration is. If I try, I can usually do well. I can sit through movies, read books and the news, etc. For some reasons, listening to others isn’t my strong suit, though.

What distracts you?

Sorry to hear that. I can watch movies and series with no trouble call concentrating but when it comes to reading that’s when the trouble starts

I just splurged and bought the Indiana Jones movies. It’s taking me a really long time to finish them.

Great movies! A lot of my childhood was spent watching them.

Man I wish I could watch movies like I did then
