Are you having problems when you must focus on your current tasks? Are you tempted to just flip through the windows on your desktop and look for something to save you? Are you tempted to check what’s going on on Facebook or Twitter instead of working on your goals?
If you are a Mac user, you may find the following two free applications quite useful then.
Isolator is an application that can hide all windows from your desktop. No more email clients, no more Twitter clients or websites. The minute you’ve started Isolator, it is only you and the current application until you finish your job.
Freedom is an application that takes a radical approach: it cuts your internet for a predefined period. The only way you can get back online before the defined timer expires is by rebooting the machine. And that’s a bit of a hassle, so maybe you’ll just focus on what you have to complete.
