Here are a few of mine.

- On Windows 10, you can create a second, third, or more desktops. I use one of these as my task focused desktop to get stuff done. It’s great for me because only the web browser and tabs that I open in it will be shown. This helps a lot to keep me from seeing another browser instance and having the urge to switch back.
Smartphone
- I use an Android and realized just this year that I could pause apps. To do this, hold your finger on the app for 2 seconds. A menu will appear, and the hourglass looking thing is tapped to pause the app. This is great for me when I don’t want to get pinged with a bunch of stuff in a set period of time. It also saves battery energy as the app is either no longer running in the background or is running on a low amount of energy. Then when you’re ready to use a paused app, hold your finger on the app for 2 seconds, and a new menu will show to unpause or cancel.

Lists. Music. Earplugs for if I can’t remove myself from an overstimulation situation. Reminders and calendar events for everything. Keep all my stuff in the same spot. Take walks every day. Try to remember to eat and sleep well by keeping a strict routine. The last thing is crucial for me.
