whatever I just read because i dont remember any of it. anyway, is this just a bad habbit or do i need to re-channel my brain wandering into something like image streaming or something...?!!? help me out here, thanks
My guess is that your problems stem from not being taught how to use your brain correctly. Correctly means---using your brain in a manner that is beneficial for you.
I would suggest purchasing the home study course of PhotoREading if you can. If you can't afford it, then buy the book and a paraliminal tape like memory supercharger or personal genius. I write this because it's not just PhRing, but rather PhotoReading the Whole Mind System. I got so much out of the total concept. It's an approach.
Do not blame yourself for your wandering mind. The educational system in the US has not addressed the need to train students how to study or use their brains efficiently. Here, learn about electricity. Read chaps. 4-7. The test is in 3 weeks. Then when your mind wanders due to not having a brain friendly approach to studying, you think you're stupid. Then when you finally graduate and your mind is still wandering you get angry with yourself.
The brain is a terrific instrument and people like Tony Buzan saw this back in the 1970's.
Win Wenger's book The Einstein Factor has a chapter on Freenoting. There have been some interesting things going on, but you'll have to do the foot-work. Good Luck
