I was a postgraduate student in Germany and I had a very hard time studying because of different reasons. It was very hard living away from my family and dealing with people from different culture and different language. I had problems concentrating in my studies and that pushed me to search for methods to improve my concentration.
The beginning
I thought the best way to increase concentration is to play mind games such as chess. I wasn’t that good in chess so it wasn’t really fun competing others online! Visiting German big bookshops was one of the ways I used to waste my spare time. Although most of the books were in German language, they had a lot of great English books as well. Reading is one of my hobbies. But I still in need of something that boost my concentration!
My hand laid on some dedicated magazines section. The Sudoku section had caught my eyes! They had a lot of people who buy Sudoku magazines and they really have a big collection of different types of this “numbers” game. After only one week, I had become addicted to this game. I had always felt my brain refreshed after playing two to three games in row. Giving me this mind boost for my mind, I started to recommend it for my friends who had the same concentration problem.

The music project
I didn’t stop looking for other ideas to “tickle” my mind. I was reading an article about how music can affect your mind whether in increasing concentration or in making it easier for you to sleep if you had insomnia.The best place to search for music was Youtube. I searched for “Study Music”, “Sleeping Music”, “Work Music”, and other words..
I was lucky to find Dennis Kuo, He was a medical student then. (He’s now a doctor). And he writes amazing music, he is a real Artist!
I am very glad to introduce you to Dennis Kuo channel on Youtube:
I also want you to listen to my favorite music from his work
Since then, his music has helped me in my studies. Even after graduation, I use his music to be more productive at work. I wish I can remove my headphones and put the music for all employees in the company’s speakers, it really gives positive energy and I really like to spread this energy!
