This is the secret of success in all walks of life.
We do not accomplish anything significant, as our attention and interests are scattered in many directions. I ask you to control the agitation of your mind and focus it, as per the instructions, in the practice of dhyan yoga. Because of its wayward diversions, you are neither able to concentrate upon your studies nor to work for proper health; you are not able to do anything significant; there is always an instability, as well as scattering of your efforts.
This haphazard state of your mind should be controlled with the help of meditation along with the devotional practices of japa.
Your mind should be well organized and trained to imbibe the habit of "work while you work and play while you play".
Be that a worldly task or spiritual practices, whatever you do, should be done with full attentiveness. Deep mental concentration is a spiritual quality.
