For me, I would say that external noise is the most distracting to me. For example during our speech class we always have band music playing the whole time because they are right next door and it is super loud. To help me focus while that is happening I really try and just act like its normal and forget completely about it and that seems to help me the most.
Wow Briggs, that's crazy. I didn't even think about that but I suppose I agree.
I can definitely relate to this Briggs. I get distracted by the music too, I often join a long and start tapping my feet or my fingers to the beat. Then I realize I gotta lock in for the class.
