Here be distractions
When you start the practice of meditation, mind starts drifting to myriad thoughts.
- Accept these thoughts and choose not to interact with them
- Keep a diary or a page – whenever something distracting pops up write it down and continue to focus on the present moment
Thinking in Pomodoros
Start with major tasks and then break tasks in subtasks
- Estimate these tasks and subtask
- Deadlines help, procrastination is second nature
- “Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion”
- Parkinson’s law
Bigger is better
Once you start hitting the time barrier consistently, it becomes a bit of a nuisance to take break mid flow
- Keep increasing the time frame go from 25 to 30, 45 to 60 heck even 90.
- The aim is to take breaks in the lows recharge and hit goals again.
Grind through it
The urge to break the flow is high
- Only keep the minimum tabs required
- Turn phone notifications off, heck get the phone away from work place
- Make it difficult
- Rules like “No tik tok on work mode”
- Bonus play time for completing a session
