A member asked:

There were some work where i cant focus. i do that work but my mind was thinking of others things. what shall i do? please help!

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Avoid distractions: Sometimes it is hard to concentrate. It is hard to know your exact situation, but ... Getting enough rest, having a light snack, going for a walk, being on an exercise program, setting a timed goal, and meditating can help.
