Distractions Distractions Distractions! boy, do they come up often!

I like to be as honest as possible when sharing my experiences regarding life and learning. I believe nobody is perfect, I also know that there are a lot of people that share similar experiences and can also relate to this particular issue that I'm about to talk about.

The issue of distraction popped up in my thoughts recently and has been a major concern. I realized certain things occur unexpectedly that distract us from our learning schedule. I'll give examples since I'm self -learning at the moment, I have a schedule which is wake up, do a little exercise (Which is walking, that's all the exercise I do ), have a bath, write, read, etc.

Sometimes, it's never the same. I may get a call from my sister to help deliver products or realize we're missing certain things in the house that I need to pick up or get a call from a friend who wants to stop by for a chat whew! the list goes on. I realized that I was spending a lot of time doing things that would eat up my study time.

To help solve this problem, I decided to seek the advice of certain wise ones, in other words, look up what others thought about the situation and how they managed it to help me understand how to deal with distractions to study effectively.

In conclusion, I realized that there will always be distractions big or little. Keeping distractions to a minimum is one way to go, If you have put your phone on “do not disturb” do so if necessary. Find the right environment to study, and most importantly, create a routine to stay organized.

We're in this together *winks*
