I know i didn't invent this tip but i discovered a solution completely out of making this mistake over and over and over again.

You can use this tip immediately and develop the habit to save unlimited amounts of time, frustration and overwhelm while working on the computer.

What problem does this solve?

Whenever you open up your computer to start work on something, you typically see 3 or more or 20 tabs open. No problem right? Because you’re going to work on your most important task….. Then you look a the open tabs and start thinking about the score from your favorite football team, the unfinished blog post you started, your calendar for the day, a new idea that popped into your head, an email you want to send, your new instagram/facebook/youtube notification (substitute your own real examples).

Then you feel bad because you got distracted and even if you get back on track leave some valuable attention residual on these items which leaves me with an underlying feeling of overwhelm

Solve this problem right now

Are you ready?, Let’s go

Step 1.

At the end of your working session on the computer make sure you have any links or docs saved.

Step 2.

Close ALL tabs on your computer or better yet close your browser completely.

Step 3.

When you open up your computer for your next session you'll start with a blank browser and you can go directly to the one thing you wanted to do first and INCREASE THE CHANCES OF YOU BEING PRODUCTIVE DRAMATICALLY!

This may seem too obvious or simple to make a difference, but it does for me. You may still think of the one or two distractions but not the unimportant tabs you left open.

Give it a try you’ll be glad you did.
