and clear your workspace get rid of anything that isn't helping you focus your phone random papers even that half finished cup of coffee from yesterday but it's not just about physical space it's also about creating mental boundaries one thing that helped me was building a focus ritual before I start working I silence my phone close all unnecessary tabs and set a timer for 90 minutes during that time nothing else exists except the task in front of me and here's a pro tip don't forget to involve your family or roommates let them know when you're working

once here's how I mastered single tasking I started using what's called a priority ladder each day I write down the three most important tasks I need to accomplish not 10 not 20 just three and then I attack them one at a time in order of priority when you focus on just one thing at a time you get into what's called Deep work that's where the magic happens it's where you do your best thinking your most creative work and make real progress so here's the takeaway stop trying to do everything at once pick one thing give
