Boost Your A.M. Achievement by Blocking Computer Distractions..

I wrote recently about a little productivity application called Temptation blocker. It’s good at eliminating distractions such as web browsing, RSS reading and Instant messenger distractions. I have always contended you should get to work on your number one goal very first thing in the morning. Launching a web browser can cut into that early morning goal productivity by luring you into distraction-ville.

Here’s a simple way to ensure you don’t have a chance to get distracted using a tweak to temptation blocker. All you need to do is as you are leaving the office set temptation blocker so that it runs all night and several hours into the next day.

As an example, lets say you leave work at 5pm and arrive to work at 8am – in total, you don’t want to be distracted until 10am. As you are leaving work at 5pm set temptation blocker to run from 5pm till 10am the next day by setting a “Get Work Done” period of 17hours. That way, you arrive the next day with no access to your web browser, RSS feedreader, instant messengers or games. You’ll have to do something productive
