A video called "Why you can't Focus!"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52nqjrCs57s

"So today I'll explain what's holding you back from focusing and what you can do to improve it."

This video has got some solid advice on how to improve your focus and your attention span.

The video description describes it pretty well:
"In today's world, being able to focus is almost like a superpower.
You rarely see anyone who's able to concentrate on a single task for hours.
And the individuals who are able to focus, to nobody's surprise, get so much more done than other people."
"There are many areas where you could benefit from better concentration. Whether it's for school, studying, work or a hobby. If you're able to focus you can get your desired results faster."
"So today I'll explain what's holding you back from focusing and what you can do to improve it."

How mindfulness changes the emotional life of our brains | Richard J. Davidson | TEDxSanFrancisco

"Why is it that some people are more vulnerable to life's slings and arrows and others more resilient?" In this eye-opening talk, Richard Davidson discusses how mindfulness can improve well-being and outlines strategies to boost four components of a healthy mind: awareness, connection, insight, and purpose.
