just a few types and clicks away. There might be distractions on the way, but according to Samsung, “Focus
Mode allows you to block out distracting apps when trying to get in the zone. Whether you're at work or just
need some me time, you can customize and remove certain applications from notifying you or stop yourself

knowing our limitations and using it with discipline, we can always increase our ability to create and improve
our performances. So what? Why is your essay important to readers? Why should they believe what
