A focus block is a planned period when you work on one task without interruptions.
Hear it in real life
Are you free at ten?
No, I have a focus block for the budget report.
I schedule a focus block every morning before I check my messages.
The mistake everyone makes

Say: I booked a focus block for this afternoon.
A focus block is the scheduled work period itself, not a meeting.
