One of the best tools to eliminate distractions that I've found is the Forest app: <a href="https://www.forestapp.cc/" rel="nofollow">https://www.forestapp.cc/</a> . Simple concept, install both the phone app and browser extension, set a timer for 25 minutes to 2 hours and click start. It will block any websites you have listed as distractions, and prevent you from compulsively checking social media on your phone. If you make it to the end of the timer, you get a tree in your weekly "forest". If you fail the timer, the tree dies. It's a really basic thing but it helps tremendously. Social media and media in general is an addictive substance that needs to be carefully managed.
