1. The 50/10 Focus Protocol
Work with complete intensity for 50 minutes, followed by a strict 10-minute non-screen break to reset dopamine levels.
2. Eliminate Micro-Distractions
Put your smartphone in another room or turn on Do Not Disturb. Every notification costs 23 minutes of focus recovery time.
