What Type of Attention Focus Do You Have?

Posted by Iuliia Gorshkova
Date October 10, 2024

Test questions:

What do you do when you start a new task?

I think: "Oh look, something shiny!"

I watch a YouTube video for inspiration, then another one, and another one…

I plan and then start, but get sidetracked by checking my emails

I make a plan and follow it until the task is done

None

How often do you forget what you were about to do?

Always, even if it was just a second ago

Sometimes, when someone distracts me

Rarely, but it happens if I have a lot on my plate

Never, I remember everything, even what I had for breakfast last month

None

What do you do when someone calls you for lunch while you're working?

Lunch? I’m already in the kitchen!

I go to lunch first, then try to remember what I was doing before

I finish my thought and then go

I get so absorbed I might even forget to eat

None

How do you deal with tasks that take a long time?

I procrastinate and leave them until the last moment.

I start but get distracted often

I work on them in stages, trying not to get distracted

I sit down and do everything at once until it’s done

None

How long can you read a work/study text without getting distracted?

Until I see something interesting nearby

A few minutes, then I check social media

I can read for 10-15 minutes, then need a break

Until I finish and take notes

None

How many browser tabs do you have open at once?

More than 20. Everything in each one is important!

About 10, but I know what each one is for

5-6 tabs, all related to my current work

Usually no more than 3, to keep myself from getting overwhelmed

None

How do you react to a notification during work/study?

I immediately grab my phone and start scrolling

I check who it is, then go back to work

I only check it if the notification is important

I use "Do Not Disturb" mode and forget about notifications

None

What do you do when you need to work but don't feel like it?

I look for something more fun and do that instead.

I start slowly, getting distracted by small things along the way

I motivate myself to at least start and try to get into the flow.

I just do it, understanding that it needs to be done, without procrastinating

None

Time's up
