Causes of lack of concentration
One of the main causes of missing of what you are reading is a lack of concentration. When your attention wanders words slip by and leave you with little memory of what you have read. You may go through the motions of reading and studying, sometimes for hours at a time but end up with poor results.
Fear of failure is another reason for poor concentration. Often the thought of failing an exam or assisgnment starts to take more time than the actual study and this in turn adds to your worry.
- Not being prepared to read and study
- A lack of interest in the material
- The material is too difficult
- A lack of motivation
- A lack of suitable goal
- Too much noise or activity around you
- Emotional problems
- Being tired
- Having to much to do
