Distractions have no effect on the truly focused individual as winners focus on the goal, not the pain. There four types of distractions or should I call them, interruptions you will face in your work:
1. Meetings, office visitors and loud colleagues
2. E-mail, telephone notifications and meetings
3. Team lunches, calls from loved one, coffee machine conversations
4. Social media, news websites, instant messaging
According to Tim Ferris, we need to “…limit e-mail consumption and production. This is the greatest single interruption in the modern world.” What do you think?
