Managing Distractions


Headphones? Eh..

Dark wave music? Maybe

For the longest time, I have aspired to manage distractions. Social media, phone calls, unfinished books & never-ending messages; sometimes it gets tough to focus on writing. Since distractions are unavoidable, 
I am learning to deal with them.

I’m NOT an expert on anything and I know it. Just sharing the little knowledge I have gained in managing distractions, my 10-point plan.

·         Meditate.
·         Clean up.
·         Take a break. 
·         Reward yourself. 
·         Become an early bird. 
·         Control television time. 
·         Silence your cell phone. 
·         Use the Internet sparingly. 
·         Take it one thing at a time. 
·         Turn off the background noise. 


If your goal is effortless work while at home battling once-in-a-century pandemic, start here.

Making the morning routine To those who can get up early without setting alarm, I say you are blessed. Not many have that much of control over the self. To me, the greatest thing that made me develop this habit was reframing my idea of it. I had tried everything. From putting up a running gear in bed for the morning to setting puzzles as the alarm on the phone, I did it all. Some days I got up before the alarm even rang, but other days were a pain.
