Some signs of the Zodiac are more easily distra–hey, look at that shiny thing over there!
Sorry, I’m a Gemini. What I was trying to say is that some signs have a shorter attention span than others. While a steady Taurus or meticulous Virgo might be able to focus on their tasks with relative ease, these Zodaic signs are destined to struggle.
5. Aries (March 21-April 19)
Aries is often just like your stereotypical hyperactive kid. They’re brimming with energy, and if they don’t get a chance to burn it off regularly, things can get ugly. This Fire sign finds it difficult to sit still for long periods of time, so school could be a real challenge.
Give a young Aries something to play with or even chew on if they’re going to be stuck on a task for a long period of time. Adult rams in the workplace should make a point of going for a walk at lunch to clear their heads and make it through the day without losing focus.
4. Leo (July 23-August 22)
Leo’s main problem with concentration is that so much of their brain is already fixated on one thing: themselves! The lions of the Zodiac have an issue with focusing too much on themselves. That includes their appearance (especially their hair) and what other people might be thinking about them.
Even though this sign tends to be a bit vain, they’re not necessarily shallow. In fact, a keen mind and a ferocious sense of justice often hides behind that facade. Don’t underestimate a Leo. But if you want to mess with their head, tell them that their hair looks really weird today.
3. Pisces (February 19-March 20)
Gentle, dreamy Pisces is usually preoccupied with all kinds of thoughts and ideas that have nothing to do with the present moment. This sign is very intuitive and perceptive, but they’re often too distracted to do much with the knowledge they glean. If you’re talking to a Pisces and their eyes glaze over, trust that they are probably thinking about life on Mars or whether birds have dreams or if there’s a ghost in the room right now.
2. Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)
Some people have no problem making long-term commitments and plans, then following through without wavering the course. Those people are called Capricorns, and they’re the polar opposite of Sagittareans. This footloose sign of the Zodiac yearns to be free, which is why trying to get them to pay attention in an hour-long meeting is a lost cause.
Sagittarius likes to keep moving, so office work in general isn’t the best fit. Any job that involves travel or working outdoors would be better–but you should still expect a lot of job hopping on a Sagittarius resume.
1. Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Gemini is, by far, the most distractible sign of the Zodiac. I like to think it’s because, as the Twins, they’re basically two people at once. That’s a lot of thoughts for just one head.
This air sign is all about communication and creativity. Their minds are almost always churning with ideas, and they go through hobbies faster than anyone else. Once a Gemini masters a new skill or reaches a goal, they immediately lose interest and move on to something else. That’s if they even manage to follow through on their idea before another one, even more tempting than the last, comes along.
