In a modern workplace, there are many distractions that may occur and cause you to fall behind on your work. Being behind on work means that you’ll be more stressed and less productive, which can cause you to keep falling behind. In order to fix this, you need to consider improving your focus and eliminating distractions. Use these tips for improving focus for employment in Tualatin.
Let others know that you are trying to focus.
If you truly want to make yourself focus, you need to let your coworkers know so that they aren’t still interrupting you. If you tell your coworkers you need to be left alone during certain hours to concentrate, they’ll probably leave you alone so that you can work. This is important because people will then only ask questions during your “free time,” and talk to you about anything else. Until then, you and your coworkers will be able to quietly focus on your own work.
Turn off your phone notifications.
One of the biggest distractions for most people is their phone. So, if you constantly find yourself checking your phone when you’re supposed to be working, you need to reevaluate. Not all calls or messages are important, so you should consider turning off notifications and only checking your phone when you have a minute of free time. This will allow you to focus more on your work and less on your phone. Plus, you can still check messages if you have time in between work or on your lunch break, so you won’t miss anything.
Stay away from social media.
Staying away from social media is just as important as staying away from your phone. Other than texting, social media is probably one of the biggest distractors at work. Social media is not meant to be checked all the time, so only log in when you have a few minutes, or on your lunch break. You should not be constantly checking social media when you are supposed to be working. Also, you will almost always stay on social media longer than you want to because of the many different things to look at on these social sites.
