I think perhaps we have a misunderstanding here? I suspect Donald was using "concentrating" in the normal English meaning of the word - "thinking hard about", roughly. For most magic, you have to make a conscious decision to use it actively. Charms can kick in as augments with no thought on the part of the user, but feats don't, as I understand it.
And the more I think about it, the more sense that makes.
