8 ways to naturally skyrocket your focus and stop getting distracted:

1. Improve your sleep

Sleep heavily influences your:

• Mood
• Energy
• Thinking

Without sleep, your brain won’t operate properly.
6 tips to fix your sleep:

1. Exercise during the day
2. Avoid screens 1 hour before bed
3. Stop eating 2-3 hours before bed
4. Avoid caffeine 10 hours before bed
5. Buy a comfortable pillow + mattress
6. Cool your room temperature between 60-67 degrees
2. Meditate

Studies have shown meditation can:

• Boost focus
• Elevate mood
• Improve memory
• Increase attention

If you don’t like meditation, try yoga or deep breathing.
3. Listen to music

Music can drown out distracting noise and help get you into flow.

Picking music without lyrics will be your best option.

• Lofi
• Jazz
• Classical
• Movie soundtracks
• Video game soundtracks

All are solid choices.
4. Optimize your diet

The foods you eat influence your cognitive function.

• Eggs
• Spinach
• Fatty fish
• Blueberries

All are great choices to incorporate into your diet to boost brain function.

Avoid overly processed and high-sugar foods.
5. Drink caffeine

Coffee and green tea have been shown to boost concentration.

The sweet spot is anywhere between 100mg to 300mg.

To avoid negative side effects, try not to go over this.
6. Supplement

More research needs to be done, but potential brain-boosting supplements include:

• Creatine
• Choline
• Ginseng
• Tyrosine
• Valerian root

Do your own research, experiment, and use what works for you.
7. Take regular breaks

Your focus can sharply decline after 1.5-2 hours of focus.

If you notice yours declining, take a 15-20 minute break.

This will allow your brain to reset and work more efficiently for the next session.
8. Exercise

One of the most beneficial things you can do for your body and mind.

Exercise has been shown to:

• Improve sleep
• Boost energy
• Elevate mood
• Decrease stress
• Increase mental alertness

Which all play a huge role in your cognitive abilities.

"I really want to break into Product Management"

Make Products.

"I guess it's impossible and I'll never break into the industry."

MAKE PRODUCTS.

Courtesy of @edbrisson's wonderful thread on breaking into comics –
https://t.co/TgNblNSCBj – here is why the same applies to Product Management, too.


There is no better way of learning the craft of product, or proving your potential to employers, than just doing it.

You do not need anybody's permission. We don't have diplomas, nor doctorates. We can barely agree on a single standard of what a Product Manager is supposed to do.

But – there is at least one blindingly obvious industry consensus – a Product Manager makes Products.

And they don't need to be kept at the exact right temperature, given endless resource, or carefully protected in order to do this.

They find their own way.
Funny, before the election I recall lefties muttering the caravan must have been a Trump setup because it made the open borders crowd look so bad. Why would the pro-migrant crowd engineer a crisis that played into Trump's hands? THIS is why. THESE are the "optics" they wanted.


This media manipulation effort was inspired by the success of the "kids in cages" freakout, a 100% Stalinist propaganda drive that required people to forget about Obama putting migrant children in cells. It worked, so now they want pics of Trump "gassing children on the border."

There's a heavy air of Pallywood around the whole thing as well. If the Palestinians can stage huge theatrical performances of victimhood with the willing cooperation of Western media, why shouldn't the migrant caravan organizers expect the same?

It's business as usual for Anarchy, Inc. - the worldwide shredding of national sovereignty to increase the power of transnational organizations and left-wing ideology. Many in the media are true believers. Others just cannot resist the narrative of "change" and "social justice."

The product sold by Anarchy, Inc. is victimhood. It always boils down to the same formula: once the existing order can be painted as oppressors and children as their victims, chaos wins and order loses. Look at the lefties shrieking in unison about "Trump gassing children" today.
