2. Family & Friends

Everyone wants to have a social life. The adage ‘All work and no play” is true to a certain extent. However, without strict monitoring and respect for study times, family and friends may be next on the list of seven distractions.

The trouble with family is they are always around. Friends may respect your work ethic, but they are social distractions too.

How to deal with friends and family:

A. Communication is the best way to deal with family and friends.

Explain kindly and politely that you are studying and are not able to socialise right now.

In the case of family, try to find your own space where you are able to escape, and study in peace. If this is not possible arrange to study at school in the library or your classroom.
Join a study group if this could help you to focus.

TOP 7 STUDY DISTRACTIONS AND HOW TO AVOID THEM

Distractions are the interference to learning. They may differ from age group to age group, but there appear to be some common denominators that distract many students.

Firstly what is a distraction? Knowing the enemy makes it easier to deal with.

A distraction is something that diverts your attention away from the desired area of focus. Once you have identified the distraction, then the solution is easier to find. In our busy world of technology there are bound to be many distractions, especially ones appealing to our senses.

Sound, sight, and taste sensory distractions are high on the list. Noises, especially popular musical ones, are distractions to young students. Looking at smartphones and TV programs rate high on the visual list. Then your taste buds are going to crave something to eat. If you are hungry – well, you are going to battle to concentrate.

1. Social media rates highly on the list

Checking smartphones for messages and wanting facebook ‘likes’ every time the phone rings, to alert the owner of a message, is very distracting. These distractions include Twitter, Pinterest, and YouTube subscriptions. Short video clips may not seem significant until you are watching more than 50 of them a day.

How to deal with social media:

Put your phone on silent or mute notifications during your study time.
Don’t have your phone with you at this time, unless you have set it up with a timer.
Have a little scribble notepad next to you and when a distracting thought pops into your head, write it down to deal with later. For example – call Sally for a snack date.
