Timers can be very helpful. I do 25 minute work cycles and it helps me not obsess on one part of work. Sometimes I set a 10 minute timer for tasks that should be small or if I’m taking a break reading or scrolling on Facebook or a game that might suck me in. I also set alarms for important calls, meetings and even taking out the trash. It helps me be more aware of time.
