The smallest viable breakthrough
Bad ideas are not your enemy. They are essential steps to better ideas.

You could try something like the Pomodoro Technique or Flowtime to ...
Disconnect And Enter The Flow Mode
The enemy of great work is distraction. The more you are disconnected from the smartphone, the more ‘flow’ mode you can experience.
