Default Hi guys, new here - How to stay focused?

Hello everyone... signed up to this forum after a bit of procrastination which is just one of the few things I'd like to improve on.

Actually the biggest problem for me is concentrating on one task and working on it without getting distracted. Nowadays it's so easy to get distracted (self-employed) and do other things to procrastinate when I should be doing work. My biggest time waster is Internet forums, which is ironic since I just signed up for another one

Usually when I'm working, I'll do work and post on forums at the same time which really slows me down and distracts me. Also because I'm so used to this multi tasking, it's sometimes hard for me to focus when I really need to. Sometimes it just seems like I need to be doing multiple things at a time and when I'm not I think I subconsciously seek other things to do so it feels like I"m being productive when in reality it's just slowing me down.

Any tips or advice? Especially looking forward to hearing from people who are or were in the same position as me. I hope to stick around and spend more time on this forum rather than others, at least the info here is great and not just a general banter forum.

By the way, I think I have over 25,000 posts on all the various forums I post on
