Phone Notifications
- Simply turn off your phone notifications or just switch the phone off, if you really want to concentrate. The world will not end and you can always catch up later.
- If what you are concentrating on isn’t very interesting, your mind will wander to something else in a short while.
- Don’t forget to take regular breaks!

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
