poor focus

Mind keeps drifting

Poor focus is the inability to concentrate or direct sustained attention toward a task.

It may describe a temporary state I had poor focus all morning or a persistent tendency.

The phrase often appears in discussions of productivity, learning difficulties, or conditions like ADHD.

Poor focus can also describe optical or photographic blurriness—an image literally out of focus.
