No, I know it's more helpful for focus but I am phone addiction...
yes, I always switch off my phone during studying and working.
I think it's crucial to put our phones on silent mode because nowadays social media notifications can be overwhelming and distract us.
Definitely if you would like a good concentration and focus in your aims you need to no distract yourself then switch off your mobile phone and keep it far your way....
I rarely switch off my phone; I always put it in silent mode, especially in working meetings and exams for students.
Yes, I did. The mobile phone is very distracting, and it wastes too much time.
Yes, I always prefer to switch my mobile phone off while studying or doing any other work that needs focus. I also did this but now I don't have a mobile because it was lost and I haven't bought new mobile yet because I believe that mobile is so disturbing in my life, it makes me divert to my goals, but yeah, I have a laptop for study and working purpose.
Kind of , sometimes , but most of the time I don't turn off.
