How to Tame Your Wandering Mind and Actually Get Some Work Done - Nir&Far

Researchers believe that when a task isn’t sufficiently rewarding, our brains search for something more interesting to think about. You have a big deadline looming, and it’s time to hunker down. But every time you start working, you find that, for some reason, your mind drifts off before you can get any real work done. What gives? What is this cruel trick our brains play on us, and what do we do about it?
