To get focused on my work, whether it be school, writing, chores, projects, etc., I first take the time (but not too much) to do those things that always distract me. I set a time limit (varies depending on the day) to scroll through Instagram, Facebook, check my email, and then I get to work. I'll also reward myself with breaks, especially when I'm writing.
After an hour or XXX number of words, I'll allow myself 15 minutes on social media. Or after I clean one room in the house (or a closet), I'll scroll through my feed. I'll create an assignment or an outline for a new unit I'll be teaching in school, then jump on social media.
See a trend here? Time suck!!! What's your "time suck" and how do you manage it?
