Procrastination is often the result of being distracted from the ultimate goal. Multitasking is unsuitable for ultra learning - REMEMBER TO FOCUS

Beware of the things that could be distractions:

• Your Environment: Be aware of what environment you work best in, switch off your phone, or block all notifications.

• Your task: We are all oriented different, so some tasks may be easier to accomplish than others - break down your task into smaller parts.

• Your mind: The mind is restless and constantly working on formulating ideas but it is possible to quiet the mind to achieve the result. Remember to take breaks now and then - meditate, drink some mint tea ,let the mind drift then return your focus.

EVERY DISTRACTION IS ABOUT YOU!
