Thought and concentration

[StarPhoenix]

It is not for nothing that I am called "Supertwit"...

I was drifting off to the boss's offices this morning, the word
"CONCENTRATE!" still ringing in my ears when I wondered
[again] how one can be sure that one is concentrating
[staring ferociously at paperwork doesn't seem to be what is
required...] or whether there is some way one can force one's self
to concentrate when the boss tells one to do so-and thus assure one's
superior that one is indeed doing so? Likewise for thinking.
Whenever I am told to think about something, I am not sure
whether I should be conscious of some process occurring in my neocortex.
I do sometimes have ideas [or as I might say, certain things "occur to me"] but it is as though they had simply popped into being fully formed.
I am at a loss as to how I did it. [not good when one has to teach someone] One rare occassion I have what my colleagues consider
a brilliant idea. I would like to know whether there is anything I can do to make that happen more frequently.

Thanks
Any suggestions/criticism but definitely no profanity
would be welcome.....and yes you may pm me if you wish

Concentrate!

Look my man, we have to find out what the root cause of this state of mind is. Is it stess related, lack of a good nutritional diet, not enough fish maybe? Are the wheels on your chair properly oiled? If given a penny for your thoughts, do you give the person change? Deep inside your psyche is a reason waiting to be uncovered, on your next visit we must try shock therapy, cannot do a lobotomy, nothing left to "lobotomise".
I am fearful for you, could it be related to the close relationship with your mother maybe, a bit of hypnosis seems on the cards! There may be signs of an Oedipus complex here, defenitely time for a question and answer session!

To have brilliant ideas in quick succession, I do suggest that you train yourself to have your ablusions early each morning before you go to work, thus relieving your body of any waste matter that may be causing a block. Regular bowel movements are mandatory to having brilliant thoughts.
