A method includes determining a state of the user that is any one of an attention state and an attention absence state. If the user is in the attention absence state, the indication by the progress indicator is modified to indicate a first fake progress of the execution of the task slower than the current real task progress. If the state of the user is the attention state for a time period longer than a transition time period after a last transition of the state of the user from the attention absence state back to the attention state, a current progress of the execution of the task is indicated by the progress indicator, otherwise the indication by the progress indicator during the transition time period is modified to indicate a second fake progress of the execution of the task faster than the current real task progress.
