Improving Attention Span: Seeking Tips and Strategies

I have messed up my attention span to the point where I am not able to sit and focus on something for 10 minutes. I need to study for a switch but i am not able to do so. If anyone has any tips to improve that, books, meditation, or anything that worked for you guys.

It's not fixed, mostly in the range of 4-8 hours. It's hard for me to sleep at night and even harder to wakeup. For few weeks in a row i had <5hr average.

First fix this, because nothing will give better results if this is not fixed, min 7 hrs per day is must.
Then try reading books. First start reading a paragraph in one go and then increase the amount that you are reading.

Don't be so harsh on yourself, take it easy and increase sleep time and reading capacity slowly slowly.

Don't drink tea or coffee after 6pm
