Yes, Because it make so much noise around me when i do something important which need more focus.
very useful
I like this meeting, cause it's helping me to learn some words
For me,
Unfortunately, i didn't switch off my phone because i could receive some calls from my family and coworkers.
But i often make it silent when i have an important meeting .
sure every time ^_^
I never switch my mobile phone because I can receive calls all the time. But I often make in selence to be focus.
Do you ever switch off your mobile phone to help you focus?
Sometimes I switch off my phone and put it way to avoid any distraction. Other times I leave it on and keep it by my desk.
I never switch off my phone because my kids may call me if they need help, so I always make it silent
I always switch off my mobile phone to focus on my job. Notices from the phone will make me not focus on the key task. So, when I start the task, I will switch off my phone and get it away.
