Solution (Part 1) - Deepstash

Solution (Part 1)

  1. Cut Shallow Work: Identify two “time suckers”—maybe it’s replying instantly to every message or getting lost in your feed. Dedicate that time to important tasks.
  2. Set a Routine: Set up a dedicated study hour, maybe from 6 PM to 7 PM, where you’re totally off your phone. Inform friends about this, so they know you’re unavailable.
  3. Limit Social Media: Allow yourself a quick scroll after you finish the hour, using social media as a reward, not a distraction.
