2 Daily Halachas
from 
 
Our Rabbis tell us - one who studies [at least two] Halachos daily is assured a portion in Olam Haba -  the world to come (Gemorah Megilla 28)  

The Vilna Gaon also said that for every word of Torah one learns one gets 613 Mitzvahs.

Therefore, we are going to learn two daily Halachas every day from Sefer Kitzur Shulchan Aruch and other sources.

Laws of Davening Shemoneh Esray
 
Part 5:  THE PRAYER
 
11.  One may not interrupt the shemoneh esray with words or even a gesture.  Even if a king greets him he may not respond, unless not answering will put his life in danger.
 
12.   One may not answer even kadish or kedusha during the brochos of shemoneh esray, but when he hears the chazan saying them, he should be silent and concentrate on what the chazan is saying.

50 Suggestions for Concentrating during Prayer!
 
(30)   The sefer Derech Chaim says, when a person has enough time to say all the prayers clearly and slowly, he can concentrate:  and when he doesn't allow himself that much time, or he doesn't say it patiently but with haste, he cannot concentrate.
