While the world is slowly getting back to normal, our lives have to snap back into focus quickly. For some of us, this comes very quickly. This type of person might’ve spent the pandemic working out, revamping their home, and doing the absolute most. For the other half, we spent that time just surviving. It’s been a challenging year and a half, and starting to focus on what we did before is not coming as quickly as it did before the world shut down. For that reason, and that reason alone, we’ve done some research to help our readers focus their attention on the tasks they have to accomplish. It’s so hard to be able to focus once you get distracted, especially now that our world has become digital. Keep reading for more!

Four Techniques To Get Back to Focus Easily

1) Get Rid of Distractions

To fully set your focus on accomplishing a task, you need to get rid of all distractions that might get in your way. For anyone, that could mean putting away your phone, computer, or whatever else might get in your way. It’s hard to do, but it’ll still be there when you’re done doing what you need to do. The most productive people do this. So, unless you need that item to accomplish said task, it’s time to say bye-bye for a few hours.

2) Try the Pomodoro Technique

If you have trouble fully getting rid of your distractions, try the Pomodoro technique. It’s a technique where you work or do your task for twenty-five minutes and then take a five-minute break. This way, you can get that time in to reward yourself for being productive. Once you’re gone through three or four rounds of this, you’re allowed to take a more extended break of around 20 to 30 minutes.

3) Don’t use social media

The new age is the ultimate distraction and something you’ll probably use your breaks for, but it’s something that we’re all addicted to at this point. To be the most productive, it’s best not to log in to Facebook or Instagram so you can fully utilize your time to get your tasks accomplished. You’ll feel much better once this happens. This is the best way to focus, according to Healthline.

4) Focus on similar tasks

To get sh*t done, group your tasks into similar priorities. For example, if you’ve got to go to the DMV and the post office, this would be similar because you’re leaving the house to run errands. Healthy meal prep and cooking dinner? Both food-related tasks. When you do this, you exert less energy and don’t have to switch between different things to do. Happy errand running, AModrn team!
