I'm into meditation, how about you?

its very difficult to shut out the outside noise where i live, even late night

Have you tried headphones with automatic noise cancelation?

I believe is due to the various frequencies that hammers us everyday that's where the distraction comes i think

No.
The only real bad distraction is a smartphone, that gets into your head. everything else is a noise your brain is naturally evolved to ignore if you let it.

And that too yes

I'm pretty confident that this is a bad place to talk about that.

Ok that's admittedly a lame thing to say. Sorry. I just don't want to go down that road. I do feel comfortable talking about small powers tho.

For example, consider what happens when you concentrate your attention - on the words on this screen, or on a thought, or on a game you're playing, or walking and balancing on top of a skinny wall . You do it better, right? You understand the words better, you think better, you play the game better, your balance is better.

Well that's interesting, right? That's a magic power right there. Something is happening to your seeing and control there. Something really big and important.

And what if you took that further.
