Does anybody else have this problem?

I mean i cant focus on a single task for more than 20 minutes at a stretch. There are so many distractions from your thoughts to social media to movies etc etc.

How do you focus on tasks/work/studies anything be it to make your life better? How do you motivate yourself to do something without getting distracted? If you know what i mean.

Anybody?!

yeah its called a gemini moon HAH! but in all seriousness it took until my 30s to get the discipline and tenacity i have today. practice! things like yoga, reading, gardening, etc. take time and patience. you can exercise this in your daily routine by silencing your phone and working on one task for as long as you can. even if it's just 20 min at first, with time, you can expand on this.

I used to go to a coffee house and do the work

there... I'm assuming you mean schoolwork.

As for motivation... let me know if you figure

that out because I have no idea.

Ummmm well I'm prone to destroy my phones when I get to a certain point but I just got an iPhone 8 plus and already it's like I'm back on crack cocain, I can only pull myself away from it to exercise....I'm neglecting a lot of areas in my life and I don't quite know what to do
