Even if it’s just a break to chill or read or drink some tea. If you stay super on top of everything and don’t waste any time, reward yourself for that! You’re amazing and deserve some kind of reward for slaying it. (Here’s my personal study playlist if you want to check it out!)Īlso sometimes I just blast Hans Zimmer and that really intensifies my focus. They really just submerge me “in the zone” and essentially block out any little noisy distractions around me so that I can focus 110% on the task at hand. Spotify makes tons of great focus playlists and I love them. If you don’t already have an arsenal of quality focus/study playlists in your life, YOU NEED ONE MY FRIEND. *I definitely DON’T recommend trying that at home…or anywhere lol Secret Weapon #2: FOCUS PLAYLISTS The app I use on my MacBook is called BeFocused and I would 10/10 recommend it to anyone who is looking to stay focused on any task or study. I recommend using a timer app, either on your phone or computer so you hear it ring even if you have headphones in. The logic behind this is that you can’t get distracted with that clock ticking down next to you!! It’s timing you, essentially making a little game in your head of “let’s see how much you can get done in 25 minutes.” This is not designed to push you to your breaking point*, it’s just designed to make you FOCUS hardcore. Basically, you set a timer for 25 minutes and WORK WORK WORK and then when your timer rings, you break for 5 minutes. Secret Weapon #1: WORK SPRINTSĪlso known as the Pomodoro method, this secret weapon has saved my life. But when the enthusiasm starts to fade and the challenge steps in, you need more than motivation. You might be able to get motivated for a little while about the project you’re working on. These methods (SECRET WEAPONS!) have saved my concentration many a time and, ultimately, saved my life. But today I’m going to share with you my personal secret weapons for staying focused. So how exactly do you stay focused? Well, it’s different for everyone. But I’ve learned from experience that when you lose focus and get distracted, you always feel like crap afterward and regret everything. There are endless opportunities for procrastination! And sometimes it’s fun to wander down a trail of distraction. Seriously, the internet is both a blessing and a curse - and I’m pretty sure everyone knows that. Especially when you work from home and work on a computer for like 10 hours a day and there are so many ways to get distracted on the internet. Sometimes it’s really hard to stay focused.
