It’s easy to say “Just turn these notifications off,” or “Just put your phone away,” or “Just don’t open that tab.” In fact, one cannot simply quit workplace distractions: being distracted is a bad habit and should be handled as such. So how can you avoid distractions at the workplace and start using your time wisely?

There are some old-school methods such as blocking distracting websites on the router. However, this alone won’t help you concentrate and be more productive: there are games and other time-wasting applications that can work offline, and you can easily get distracted by apps on you mobile devices, or by checking your email.
