How I Beat Logging Onto Facebook (procrastinating)

Hey guys, this is the free program I used to block various sites for a predetermined time. Its super clean and non spammy, no optin required etc and it's helped me a lot over the past week.

    This is really cool! I recently stopped using Facebook! I used stayFocused to block it for a month - but this tool looks really cool too!

      That would be very conflicting for me since I network using Facebook everyday to make sales.

      I tend not to focus on the effect of procrastination, usage of time wasting programs, rather i look at the core of the problem which is lack of self discipline.

      This is why i do a small meditation/visualization prior to starting major work.

      It might sound silly but it works very well for me. When i do this i visualize the intended outcome which could be minutes from now or hours/days/months away. This helps me cement WHY I'm doing what I'm doing so there's a method to the madness.

      Mundane tasks become duty-filled and meaningful. The smaller tasks add up to create the realization of goals and it's keeping that goal in my sights in micro managed steps that helps 100x so i can keep focus until manifestation of the desire.

    But what if your using Facebook as apart of your business? Kind of defeats the purpose.

    There are browser plugins that help you block facebook for specified periods of times.
