I usually use the internet for everything, sometimes I find myself doing work and looking up things on the internet at the same time, which makes finishing a project very time consuming! I turned off the internet for a few hours while I did some work and found that it helped me focus a lot better and I didn’t have any distractions. Unless I need the internet for what I’m working on, it might be a good idea to leave it off while I work!

Another habit I have is either listening to music (or occasionally watch tv) while I do work. I tried working without any noise. I didn’t find this very helpful, I think TV is more of a distraction because I sometimes look up and watch what is going on. On the other hand, music actually helps me work, I put on different kinds of music depending on what I’m working on.
