Masturbation is natural and normal thing. It is done by 95% of the males in the world, mostly before marriage as well as when wife is away, in menses or pregnant after marriage. It is not at all harmful. Frequency of masturbation done by an individual varies from once a day to once a week. It depends upon individual libido, wish and timing. It neither causes any weakness nor any problem in sexual activity.
We recommend masturbation 3-5 times a week an average.

Masturbation is a natural phenomena practiced even by animals. Do not link it with motivation or other symptoms such as weakness, concentration etc. Most of them are pure myths.
