Second- Learn to take control of your environment. Once you start to pay attention
to what aspects of your environment are affecting you, you can control that
environment and make it work for you. If you are always cold inside air-conditioned
buildings, make sure to carry a sweater with you as a rule. If you can’t handle the
glare of fluorescent lighting, set up ambient lighting in your office. If you are
distracted by smells, consider having a favorite scent at the ready that you can
enjoy in place of the offensive smell. If your distractions are a television or a
gossiping friend or co-worker, consider setting those things off-limits when you are
working. Banishing distractions is often a good way to keep up your focus and your
momentum.
Finally- Teach others how distractions might be hurting them. Again, most of the
world doesn’t pay much attention to what is affecting their senses. The more you
become aware of your own distractions, the more you will notice how other people
are affected by their own. Be an educator and a champion for distraction-free
spaces. Teach others how to identify their own distractions and share alternatives
that will reduce their fatigue and overwhelm to help make their time more
productive.
Distractions are a thief of productivity and comfort. Over time you may start to feel
weary and not even know why. Becoming aware of - and cutting out - distractions
is an excellent way to prevent fatigue and diminish fatigue.
