Does music helps you concentrating or aids as distraction??

khare1005 · Jul 14, 2011

most of us have this hobby of listening to music.but do you prefer listening to music when you are so much immersed in any particular job that needs a lot of concentration?does it help you to concentrate more on your work or distracts you?

It's usually depending on my mood. It doesn't matter how hard the work is, but the mood itself must be set. Yes it helps me when I'm on a good mood, when it is bad, well I don't know if that would help or not. Since I listen to music anytime when I'm doing some works.

ACTUALLY , it depends on the situation we are facing and the music we are listening.For example , if you are in mood of having peaceful day then rock , pop and hard music is not your choice but if you are feeling to have a party then , those music is your choice .Music always close to our heart. Listening soft music when trying concentrated really helps me out .

i guess yes in some cases sometimes when i feel boring even some times when i feel sleepy while i am working music is the only thing that keeps me awake so yeh it helps me to concentrating.

Music is a very important companion of me in loneliness times, it comforts me when i am alone, it also helps to remove the tension of mind

i think the answer differs from person to person.as for me if am doing something which requires a lot of concentration,i prefer a complete silence so as to not getting distracted anywhere.if a song is playing i get carried away and my efficiency is decreased.so if i am doing dome work which doesn't require much of concentration i play music.

It depends on my mood and the urgency of the work and of course it depends on the music itself. It is good to work with cold room with a mellow music background but be careful if will bring you to bed as it will make you sleepy. If the day is sad and I am sleepy, I will play a lively music that awakens my inner being even I am doing some work.

It depends on the type of music that I am listening to. If it's soft relaxing music then I find it very calming and it helps me to concentrate, if it's something that will distract me and make me want to dance then obviously I don't find it as appealing.

I do not like to listen to music when I am talking to people and stuff, but I like to listen to music when I am walking alone or when it is really quiet.

The thing is, I do not really like the feeling of earphones in my ear. I should geta headphones or something.

pritilixious · Jul 16, 2011

For me yes! Like when im at work,it inspires me to do job actively,and sometimes it decrease boredom.well it depends also to the kind of music im listening to.

inamnilawar · Jul 16, 2011

anjville · Jul 17, 2011

As I am replying to this post, I am listening to different types of music - R&B and the playing Hawaiian beat to the adjacent beach party. I am not distracted at all since I love to listen to music.

But sometimes, if I need more concentration, nothing beats a relaxing cozy library with all silence and the like!

Well it depends, some people can do more well while listening music while some listen music which can distract them. It really depends.

i feel the same way.music takes me away from everybody else and i get lost in the lyrics.so i avoid playing them when i have to concentrate on something important.

yes music is fun during free time but it distracts me when am busy with some work as i forget mt work and start humming with the song.

It depends on the person. Me for example, if I am copying something that is very long, I generally listen to music, and that also help me writing quicker. In other situations I don't listen because i loose concentration.

cursedsoul · Jul 17, 2011

Music is way too much a distraction for me. I start singing along and it obviously affects productivity. Even typing out this reply is taking so long because Beyonce is playing in the background.

Does music helps you concentrating or aids as distraction??
