EY1 has great suggestions! I close my mail box and put my phone away when I need to focus. (I close chat too if I'm really serious haha). There's always a sense of urgency here but if I don't shut out the world sometimes, I won't get my work done. I also found a way of organizing my inbox with tags, filters and flags (I'll try to find the article to share) so that I can file things away after I've looked at them. Also have you ever tried the pomodoro method for getting things done? You dedicate 25 minutes to something then take a 5 min (or longer) break and then do another 25. It kinda helps me to have that set time frame cause I can start going down rabbit holes sometimes 😂 productive rabbit holes, but still rabbit holes
Oh and lots and lots and lots of lists to keep track of stuff. I try to use keep but I still need a notebook
how do I manage/stop this? any suggestions?
And know that you will reply to any emails during that time so you can focus on what you're doing right now
