How do you work every minute you're awake?

Is this the only way to accomplish something in Veeky Forums? I can't believe how much time I waste shitposting, reading about politics, facebook, etc.

Dont tempt me, user. Lately I've seriously been thinking about smashing my computer.

ritalin

your pic is right. get off Veeky Forums and stop fucking around. i spent 6 hours studying math today. no reason you can't do the same

Focus

This is seriously the secret to being successful in the 21st century: you have to avoid the copious amounts of shit that distract you, eat up your time, and drain your motivation... all of which are designed specifically for that reason, with the goal of making money off of you.

I wouldn't bother, I was put on it for my 'ADHD' that later turned out to be a symptom of Asperger's after they'd already forced me on the drug for a couple of years in my adolescences.

All it did was make me emotionally dead, give me ticks and cause hunger spikes during the night.

Try a PC-free day.

Prepare everything you need to study that day the day before. Don't turn on your PC on that day at all.
If your phone distracts you, turn that off as well and put it somewhere out of reach.

you must really want it and not just kinda want it
if you can apply the same philosophy to work as you can to distractors (like playing video games from dawn to dusk), you will make it.

i had the same problem OP and nothing else seemed to work so I just bought a shock collar for myself and started reconstructing my brain's pleasure/punishment system

doesnt work for everybody and you still have to bring motivation
if you have the motivation, try meth (yeah, not joke, 3-5mg oral and hf doing one thing for 10h, so don't stare at your phone!)

>I can't imagine a Nobel prize winner having to constantly fight the desire to look at cat pictures and play video games.
maybe not, but some were busy fighting distractions of imaginary spies

But computers are the best study tools....

Looks like Newton didn't need any computers to invent Calculus

Best Solution is to find a library with a computer lab and go there everyday to study.

The PC isn't the issuse, those are super useful for studying. What you need is to disconnect the Internet or put a temporary blocker to time wasting sites

I think imageboards ruined my attention span.

Before imageboards any entertainment I wasted time on was an activity that had a beginning and end and that I spend continuous attention on. Like video games or tv shows.

But with imageboards I just keep posting on them throughout the day. There is no clear start and finish. I just keep switching back and forth between work and imageboards where I wait for new threads or replies to posts. I can't really focus on work because I still have imageboards on my mind and whether someone replied to my post or if there is a new interesting thread. Also the posts are all short which doesn't train focus.

Really? Can you describe your experience?

Would love to hear about your attempts and maybe try myself.

This book helped me to study 17 hours a day. I'd recommend it.

livestream it

what if you're a programmer or someone who needs computers to work?

i was quite a procrastinator my whole life, and the last two years i took baby steps towards studying more and more. Today I did 5 hours. So it is possible.

Thanks, ordered.

twitter and Veeky Forums broke my brain. its just an unending stream of meaningless content. (you)'s and notifications just give me some kind of hit that I cant get enough of. Like more than interacting with friends

Can u summarize it

You fap and you're forever chasing control and balance between being an addicted sweet, sweet endorphin chasing degenerate - because let's face it normal porn isn't doing it for you anymore -- it used to but you've been fapping so long and slowly trying new things that you've long surpassed the point of dipping your toes in the water, you're under the ocean now -- hence in some cases cum-farting interracial dickgirls might even be too tame.

Or you could abstain, which by all accounts is an ongoing process. Sure it gets easier but depending on how fucked you are via prolonged adolescent Internet degeneracy, some sexual wires may never switch out - regardless you soldier on knowing that although you reaaaaally want to bust a nut, and that even if you manage to find yourself ejaculating inside a pusy, it just isn't as satisfying as maaturbating to horsecore creampies. Then on the other hand you've the pressure to keep up your abstinence. Each day, then week and month that passes is a hard earned victory and all it takes is one small slip (and unzip) to erase all of that. Call it defeatist but most people including myself have already resigned to the fact that eventually at one point we'll all cave in.

You could smash your computer up, but that's pushing a rather extreme bandaid on a tumour and hoping that fixes it.

Maybe Tesla was on to something with castration.

basically turning up is 90% of success
be there and ready to do the work and success will come naturally

Same.

Probably same for anyone born after 1990.

how do we fix this anons? i used to be really good at concentrating until i got my own computer :(

Saved, thanks
