What I Was Doing in 2011 to Reduce Distractions Online

Below is a post I published in 2011. My methods to eliminate distractions have evolved quite a bit since then, but I do think it could be helpful to get you started between now and when I get around to sharing what is currently working for me in 2026.

The good news is I do now have great solutions for most of these for managing massive amounts of emails, social media doom-scrolling, shiny object syndrome and going into the rabbit holes of research.

As you might expect, this post is quite outdated. However, I'm publishing it now so that in the future when I share what I'm currently doing to manage the chaos we can come back here and see how much we've grown.
