If you can't cope with distracting sites and social networks, then try installing the DistractOff extension in Chrome. It will protect you from thoughtlessly wasting your precious time.
Sometimes it can be really difficult to focus on work. Every time you have to perform a not very exciting or difficult task, the brain finds new reasons to take a break, and the hand itself reaches for the shortcut of your favorite social network or forum.
A Chrome browser extension called DistractOff is a powerful and easy way to combat procrastination. When you try to open a site from the prohibited list, you will see a page in front of you with a proposal to return to work.
You can agree to this offer and continue working. But there is also a second option - to say that it is really important for you at the moment, and go to the page with cats. However, in this case, you will have to lie to yourself every time, which is not very pleasant.
You can set the list of sites to which you want to restrict access using the DistractOff button. It can be found in the browser toolbar or in the extension's settings. Here you can also specify the days of the week and the time during which the extension will protect you.
