How to Clear Your Computer of Focus-Draining Distraction - Nir&Far

from Nir And Far: Business, Behaviour and the Brain · host Nir Eyal

The man of mystery persona is typified by a side-sliding sports car winding through an onslaught of Word docs and Jpeg files. Just looking at his desktop can raise your blood pressure. But Van Els is not a secret agent. He’s a mess. In fact, Van Els’ LinkedIn profile says he is in the “custom made earplugs” business. Apparently, there is no correlation between the mayhem on one’s laptop and the adventure in one’s life. Anyone can find themselves drowning in desktop clutter and research suggests this digital detritus costs us time, degrades performance, and kills concentration.   You can read the Nir and Far blog post on: How to Clear Your Computer of Focus-Draining Distraction <a href= "https://www.nirandfar.com/2016/01/lap
