3. Limit Social Media Time đŸ“±

  • Definition: Social media is a distraction that stops us from focusing deeply.
  • Example: “I removed Instagram and only allow myself 10 minutes a day for it after I’m done with my important tasks.”
  • Application: Set time limits on your social apps, like 10 or 20 minutes max per day. Use that time after you finish your deep work as a reward. Suddenly, scrolling feels like a prize instead of a time-waster.
