It&#39;s tough, but if your goals have more importance than anything else, then it is easy. But it is more easier if you get into a vibrant calm place instead of staying in a distracting one.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Qu Snia Y.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I genuinely struggle with this so much. I have ADHD and any noise or visual distraction breaks my concentration. It takes at least 20 mins for me to get in the zone, so it&#39;s really frustrating when i get distracted. I use noise cancelling headphones, and I&#39;ve mentioned to some of my colleagues that I have difficulty staying focussed, so they try to bother me less. At the end of the day I try to remind myself that I can control what my mind pays attention to. Meditation helps with that. I take note that i hear a noise or whatever, and then let the thought go. Doesn&#39;t always work, but I&#39;m working on it<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Romane Y.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I put on my headphones even if I am not hearing music to let them know I am not available for a conversation. If they ask something I will just ignore them (I have my headphones \ud83d\ude09 so it\u2019s not rude). Also I try to have an objective that will take me around 40 minutes and when I achieve it will go and have some spare time with them.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lillie O.
