When I&#39;m focusing on getting the house just that little bit more clean, I listen to songs I can sing along to, that make me want to shimmy and dance. When I&#39;m sitting down and writing a story, I listen to sounds that invoke the imagery I am trying to convey. But, if I am using that time for self-care, I don&#39;t listen to anything but rain sounds, if I listen to anything at all.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Perry Z.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I personally listen to punk rock, metal, music I&#39;m familiar with, to start my work, halfway through, I stop it ( I don&#39;t know how and when this happens) and just have my headphones on, to cancel out the environment.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Maril Ia I.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\"> Although I realize it is helpful to listen to music while doing deep work, personally I need to focus and decrease any distractions. So I tend to do my deep work in silence and hopefully with a little distractions. I don\u2019t answer phone calls I don\u2019t check emails I just focus on the work that is to be done using the Eisenhower principle or what commonly known as the 8020 rule. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Leo C.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Depending on my mood and what I&#39;m doing, I&#39;ll either listen to something upbeat but in another language or slow, chill ambient music. I like listening to music in a different language because I&#39;m less likely to be distracted by lyrics and can just enjoy the beat and vocal tones. If I listen to a &#39;chill playlist&#39; I usually have the volume quiet enough to not be distracting but enough to still allow for ambient enjoyment. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Shaun Q.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Music! Anything\u2014especially things I haven\u2019t heard before. Maybe it\u2019s fake but I feel like it\u2019s opening new pathways that way. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">R Mi T.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">It is a tough question as people find focus in different types of music of their choice. My favourite is Pink Floyd, Enigma, Clean music (sounds of nature), sometimes even EDM&#x2F; Trance music. As you can see none of my choices are related because when I am painting&#x2F; writing a poem or, short story Clean music helps me a lot to be in focus. Other technical types of work (working on a computer) for a project&#x2F; analytics, etc. need Enigma and Pink Floyd. Whenever I want to create something new and needs brain stimulus Trance&#x2F; EDM keeps me prepped for surprises.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Silje F.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Sounds of nature and&#x2F;or instrumental music. I convert music I like from youtube (search for relaxation, meditation music&#8230;) in music file (online converter). And play music I feel that is making me relaxed.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Kurt X.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Pretty much one of three things:<br \/>\n1) Video game music, but softly. It was designed to help us focus and play video games for hours on end, why not let it help me focus on my work?<br \/>\n2) Chopin or classical. No words but my brain knows it. I don\u2019t have to learn how it goes OT put any brain power to learning the qords or singing along. Good for if there is noise going on outside.<br \/>\n3) nothing. Just conpl the silence. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Odete Y.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Sometimes I listen to the timer of Fab\u2019s deep work, but more often I don\u2019t listen to anything because I find I\u2019m so absorbed that I don\u2019t hear it anyway. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Walter F.
