Procraster actually recognizes the source of your block and suggests the solutions for your problems. Furthermore, it asks you to complete a particular task and let you pick an incentive. The app is available for Apple iPhones and iPads.

StandStand

On the other hand, an app called Freedom blocks the apps and websites on your Mac, iPhone, and Windows that are wasting your most of the time. Lastly, HeyFocus app is there for performing similar blockage from distractions, apps, instant messages, and other sites.

Break it down

People often get terrified when big tasks arrive toward them. While so, you can still accomplish a huge job just by breaking it down into several strong yet realistic tasks. By doing this, you won’t have to think much about the big project. Instead, you have to perform smaller tasks which will eventually result in the completion of your big project.

This also helps you to fully focus on a small yet important task and perform the bigger tasks efficiently.
