Dual Focus

A star lights up on the diamond and a number appears in the middle. After a blink both vanish — from memory, tap the star's cell AND the number. Both right = 1 point. The blink gets shorter as you score.

Beginner lesson

Focus is trained in short, fully-attended blocks with feedback — not long distracted sessions.

  1. Remove one distraction (phone away).
  2. Set a 10-minute timer.
  3. Do one task only.
  4. Note when your mind wandered, then return.
Worked example: Counting only the 7s in a row of digits: point at each digit, say 'yes' or 'no', never skip ahead.
