You Should Be Using Brain.fm
I’m not getting paid for this, but check out Brain.fm if you haven’t already.
I use it all the time to help me focus on my work, which requires having a lot of things moving at once on my computer screen. Even as I’m typing this I’ve got more than a dozen other open tabs and programs, each one serving an important function in my business and my workday.
So anything that helps cut out the noise that the internet constantly generates that can distract you from the tasks you have to complete to move forward is great.
You know it takes about 15 minutes or so to sink into that flow state of focus when you are working, and when you’re distracted it can knock you right out of that state, and it takes you 15 minutes to get back. So anything that helps you stay in that flow state for longer is ALSO great.
Brain.fm is like listening to a study playlist on YouTube, or a binaural audio video, but better. The people who made it are using crazy neuroscience to help you. And you can use it for meditation and sleep, too. There’s been many nights where I’ve been unable to fall asleep because my mind was racing and I put some headphones in and turned on brain.fm…
…and within minutes I was dozing.
No, I don’t have some forward slash my name discount code for you or anything. Like I said, I’m not getting paid for this. But if you care about doing work on your computer, then brain.fm might save you some time and free up space for more important things in your life than mindlessly surfing as a procrastination measure.
