When managing social media, I think it’s a rite of passage to set aside time to “look for trending audios/inspo” & end up accidentally doom-scrolling for an embarrassing amount of time

It makes me want to throw my phone across the room to focus, but that was LITERALLY the task. To! Scroll! 😐

Socials are designed to grab our attention & keep us engaged — so it’s tough to stay intentional during this task, or community engagement, or outbound engagement, etc!

Having some sort of time management system OUTSIDE of my phone has definitely helped! Idk what it is, but if my phone timer goes off— I’m immediately mindlessly ignoring it? Please tell me someone does this too?? 🫵🏼

⏱️ Here’s a Chrome Extension that has ACTUALLY HELPED keep me focused during these intentional scroll times—

🔍 Search “TIME BLOCKER Chrome Extension” in Google Chrome & download! (The logo is a red circle — ⭕️)

What I like about it:
— It helps me not only focus for small specific tasks like this, but you can also customize it to countdown longer periods of time when you are completing a bigger task

— It’s simple and effective! I didn’t want an extension to actually BLOCK a website after the timer is up because… HELLO? I need to be on social platforms for other reasons besides scrolling!

— It includes break timers in between the time blocks. It’s a much-needed reminder to stand up and move around

I hope this helps 🫶🏼 Remember to SAVE this post & follow along for more hot takes, tips, and tutorials to help you feel more confident in running your socials → @katelitschllc
