Common forms of distractions in today's world

Mobile Phones.
Camera.
People who do not consider your work important and keep nagging you, that includes your family members and friends.
Your own thoughts.

What's important to someone else often ends up feeling urgent to you.

The struggle of passion, is a struggle of focus.

Keep the above two thoughts in mind and let us understand this thing with an example

You are reading a book from your favorite author and suddenly your mom asks you what are you doing son, you said reading a novel, she said can you help me in shifting the scrap stuff to our backyard. You replied in a yes as you don't have any option here, had you replied that i am completing my homework she would have never asked you to assist her in the first place.

Unknowingly people will distract you from your work be it your friends or your own family members, moral is when engaging your self in any activity like learning, riding, reading, dancing, programming anything keep yourself away from naggers predict their behaviors and try to avoid them.

Keep your notification center off in your phone specially when you're at home and switch it on only for 15 minutes, just to check the messages. Many application and websites send you unnecessary notifications by analyzing your online behavior so there are high chances of them snatching you precious time which could have been used to produce quality of work.
