1. Silence is very important for me to focus, a lack of sound dramatically improves my ability to work.

2. Clear Thinking is difficult to achieve when you have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder but when I take a moment to relax it can and will improve my focus.

3. Remaining Positive is absolutely necessary. Becoming depressed or frustrated limits me greatly. Sometimes it is best to stand, take a breather and reflect before going back to work.]]> 2018-02-08 15:16:55 UTC https://padlet.com/awhitton1/1tkjf0nngemq/wish/229612325 must2950 https://padlet.com/awhitton1/1tkjf0nngemq/wish/229617110 3 things that help me focus are rereading what i have already read to get back on track.

1. A quiet environment. I don't work well with a lot of noise or chatter, so I need a quiet space to allow me to work at my best and  focus.

2. Keeping busy. My mind wanders at times so I find if that happens I'll doodle or do some walking around to help regain my focus.

3. Leaving my phone at home or turned off. Won't do it all the time as it's something I need for work, but if it's not easily accessible or just outright off I won't be as distracted by notifications and such things.

2. A school like environment( desk, chair, quiet)
3. frequent breaks (not too many, but enough from getting bored with the task at hand)

1. Turning the notifications on my phone off really helps me focus. I don't turn it completely off because I do need music to help me focus but if I can see that I'm getting messages then I'll check those instead of working. 
2. Being in a classroom or sitting in a chair at a table or desk is something that I need to really be able to focus because it helps me remember that I have work to work on and that it's more important than my surroundings.
3. Having something to look forward to is a huge motivator for me and really helps me to stay focused because I discipline myself by not letting myself do things that I want to do until I get my work done.
