Distraction is a process of disturbing someone's attention that remains focused on a particular subject. It is caused due to internal and external factors. The common internal factors are hunger, illness, fatigue, and daydreaming. External factors are noise heard from the outer environment. During distractions, a person is unable to pay attention to particular ones, absence of interest in doing works, and attractiveness over something above the subject of attention.
