Comment on Ask HN: How to Stay Focused?

Comments

The answer to this seems like it will depend on what your distractions are.

Without knowing that, I think my suggestion would be to be more deliberate with my time. By that I mean, set a timer for each thing you need to do, and only reward yourself with a distraction after you have focused successfully. Never reward yourself when you failed to focus.

Start small and increase the amount of focus you require of yourself over time.
