Meditation
When distractions come up during work resist the urge to Google things for example- that café’ or restaurant lookup write it down and then get back to work. It’s the same norm used during meditation. In meditation, you do not give into thoughts or give into them. You practice Dharana and Dhyana where you acknowledge their presence but allow them to pass. Similarly, at the end of your day, you let yourself come back to that list. It is a simple change, but you will be amazed at the sheer number of distractions. Upon correct reflection, you will realise so needy at the moment but after the end of that day no longer relevant. Make it a habit of jotting down daily distractions and then seeing what actually requires your attention. This exercise will help you to make better decisions and improve concentration.
Let Go attitude
