I am doing my work.<\/p>\n<p>I am smashing out good content.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m in touch with clients.<\/p>\n<p>Then other times I&#8217;m just constantly, head in the phone and it&#8217;s so difficult not to easily go down that path.<\/p>\n<p>So a few tips to help you, avoid these distractions, basically avoid the scroll.<\/p>\n<p>We all do it, and we need to avoid it because we get completely sucked into wasting so much valuable time.<\/p>\n<p>So put your phone on silent.<\/p>\n<p>Put it away.<\/p>\n<p>And set an alarm.<\/p>\n<p>What I do is I set myself an hour and a half alarm and every hour and a half, or if I&#8217;ve got clients in the morning at lunchtime, I would only check my phone at lunchtime on my social media\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>And I do that now because if I&#8217;m trying to create good content if I&#8217;m trying to create something for my coaching programme or working on my product line, I don&#8217;t want the distraction.<\/p>\n<p>I want to get involved.<\/p>\n<p>I want to get doing my work and I don&#8217;t want to be distracted.<\/p>\n<p>If my phone&#8217;s on silent, I&#8217;m never going to be curious about what that little ping sound was and who it was from.<\/p>\n<p>I turn my phone on silent and I set an alarm and then I&#8217;ll give myself an hour and a half to two hours of pure quality work. And I found that really helps me to get good quality work out there.<\/p>\n<p>So if you&#8217;re working on these bigger things, then that would be a really good tip for you to do.<\/p>\n<p>What I also do find as well is. I never put the TV on in the daytime when I&#8217;m working from home.<\/p>\n<p>So if you&#8217;re working on things from home yourself, I don&#8217;t even go there.<\/p>\n<p>I sit with a coffee outside, sit at the dining table, some music, the moment you start putting the TV on, you can then get into flicking the channels.<\/p>\n<p>And then before you know it, you are there.<\/p>\n<p>Half an hour.<\/p>\n<p>And now we&#8217;re into doing something that&#8217;s distracting you from the task that you want to do.<\/p>\n<p>Again, you need to eliminate and avoid these distractions.<\/p>\n<p>Well, the biggest one is social media.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest one is the, is the scrolling. The other good way as well is only going to groups and forums that inspire you and motivate you.<\/p>\n<p>Stop on the newsfeed.<\/p>\n<p>You ended up watching really mindless, stupid videos, stop with that and just go into forums and platforms that you want to be known in.<\/p>\n<p>And you want to be giving knowledge and value in these groups. This will obviously in turn help with your social media rankings as well.<\/p>\n<p>So good luck with that guys.<\/p>\n<p>Bye.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I want to talk to you about distractions.
