In this episode, Dra. Yvette shares five strategies that she herself uses when she needs to focus on writing. If you’re writing a thesis or dissertation and are struggling to focus, you may want to try out these strategies. The five strategies are:
1) using a timer,
2) creating a playlist and/or having background noise,
3) using apps that help block distracting websites,
4) trying out freewriting,
5) and having accountability buddies.
Have you tried these strategies? If so, how did they go? What helps you focus?
