Just switch them off and cut off the internet connection! You'll feel free enough to concentrate.

Hi friend ,

You can cut out the distraction you have control over & minimize the ones you can't stop completely .
1.Finding a focused mindset .
Keep yourself on track with the "be here now" technique.
Tune out specific distraction as you notice them .
Give yourself worry break .
Prioritize your studying by setting a main goal .
Go off the grid .
Work with energy levels .
Take brief study now and then .
Don't attempt to multitask .
2.Using a study Schedule .
3.Setting up your study space .

Print them out! I print my notes, no matter how costly it is. because I like having the notes physically on my hands, rather than on a screen. So print them out!
