Here are a few of my favorite meditation techniques for achieving concentration when I really need it, but just not in the mood.
Distant Glow: Two walls closing in and a bright glowing light in the distance. As you focus on the glowing light, see yourself moving with force and dedication forward towards the light. Feel the wind rushing as the walls come closer and enjoy the feeling of knowing that your one and only goal is that light. Nothing else matters, nothing else exists, concentrate on the goal and move forward with power, speed, and concentration.
Laser: from the eyes, see a laser beam of such concentration and focus that it can burn a hole through anything. This beam is the carrier for your concentration. Let the warm, soft, red glow of this beam spread through your body and as you bring it up from your feet all the way up to your head feel your thoughts being pulled with it, concentrated, centered, and laser sharp. Now, focus that beam on the task at hand, and burn your way through it with the full force of your concentration.
Zoom lens: Imagine the task at hand as a mental image, see it far away and small. Now, reach with your hands and your mind for that task and begin to bring it closer. Closer, even closer. All the while seeing it becoming bigger, and filling up the entire view of your mental screen. As it approaches, all else becomes hidden from view and only this image, this task, is left. As it fills your entire screen, feel the concentration bubbling up and reaching with your mind and hands for the image, grasp it. Now that you have it in your hands, your your concentration is total.
