The office is full of distractions that take employees' focus away from work. OfficeTime.net recently conducted a survey and found the top 10 time wasters. The infographic below reveals these distractions and how to fight back.

Email is the number one time killer. A third of respondents said they spend one to two hours each day checking and replying to emails, and 22% said they spend more than two hours. Internet surfing is, unsurprisingly, another big time waster with 80% of respondents saying they spend more than two hours surfing the web every day. Watching television is also taking up a lot of our time -- 26% said they watch between one and two hours of TV a day, and 16% said they watch more than two hours a day.

Most of us can be categorized into three types of time wasters -- the thrill seeker, the avoider, and the indecisive. The infographic suggests combating your procrastination by keeping track of how you spend your time.
