Distracted? Use the Microsoft Focus Assist Tool You Probably Already Have!

Are you distracted during your day? Do you feel like you spend way too much time during the day just recovering from distractions? Yeah, I can relate! And chances are, so can many of your peers.

In a recent study by the University of California Irvine, 70% of workers report that they are distracted and 54% say they are underperforming because of it. The same study says that workers report, on average, that they are pulled away from their focus every 11 minutes and that it takes 23 minutes to handle the distraction and refocus back to their original task. They even report significantly more errors in their work due to distractions.
