I try to make certain behaviors difficult

It's hard to just use force and say to yourself: "No, I've decided that I'm not going to spend an hour on YouTube this morning. I have a lot of work, a lot of things to do." It's very hard because, once again, they've understood everything and they've created services that are addictive.

So, among these different rules or these different little tips that you can put in place to limit internal distractions, once again, it will depend on the phase you are in, the time of day etc. but you can start by blocking a certain number of things on your smartphone.

For example, when I work, I either turn off my smartphone, I put it in airplane mode, but that's not always possible because sometimes I can expect a phone call, I can need to be reached, so canada whatsapp number data I either turn it off or I put it out of sight. It's stupid, right? We're not talking about much. It's not great science. The fact that you don't have your phone within reach already allows you not to think about it and to focus on your learning or on your creative task.

Same thing on the computer. I installed an application that blocks access to certain sites at certain times. So, you can always unblock it, but it requires additional steps. So,

If, one morning, I have to write scripts or I have to list ideas etc. well, I will completely block access to social networks and my emails since it is not by going to see the social networks of Français Authentique or by going to read my emails that I will advance on the content. We agree. So the idea is really to try to limit everything that can interrupt you.

What I also recommend you do on the subject is to set aside time to focus, to do things really consciously in fact. There is no problem working on your emails for an hour if that is what you have decided to do. In fact, that is what productivity is, it is doing what you have decided to do at a given moment. And if your choice was to spend an hour on YouTube to learn French for example and you do it, well you are not distracted, that is productivity. You said you would do it, you do it, you are productive.
