#ADHD Tip: Break your browser to stay focused while working
Browsers are really a problem because they offer everything in one application. Productive work, distracting social media and entertainment of all sorts. It’s hell!
So, if you are having trouble focusing, try breaking your browser by renaming firefox.exe or chrome.exe so that you can’t use it anymore. If you need specific information, print it out or write it down.
It’s not for everyone, but it helped me a lot.
Alas all my work is in web apps.
One of the things I use for Firefox is the add-on LeechBlock. I set up all kinds of block lists and then set it to block me from changing the settings within certain time limits.
It works great for the most part… Except then I pull out my phone and get distracted there as it’s harder to setup such a system there.
