He is so much engrossed in executing the body mind coordination to perform the feats. Similarly, all the great performers exhibit great focus. Now the crucial point here is how to develop this kind of laser focus?
All great achievers in different fields suggest focus of mind can be perfected through will. Putting the mind under will will train prolonged focus on a particular task. So word of advice for those, who want to have complete control over their focus, is they must watch their focus.
