The Pomodoro technique really helps with maintaining focus and productivity. Slots of 25 minutes without any distraction are surprisingly a very efficient way to stay focused on one task.

As someone handling 3 roles in 1. I book my weekly calendar in advance, allocating specific time slots for each role's main activities. I also schedule dedicated time for myself (15min every 2 hours) to prevent stress between these responsibilities - it helps me stay focused and sane

I have tried Pomodoro, blocking time on calendar to clear notifications, maintaining a todo list, planning the week ahead. Also, to be on top of my work emails, i have tried tools like Superhuman. Infact, I am building a product to help people find focus amongst all the communication chaos. Its called Zivy. https://zivy.app/

I’ll literally just put my phone somewhere else than my work room.

Consider using noise-canceling headphones or listening to instrumental music to drown out background noise.

I would rather work in the office and study at the library far from all the distractions.
