(I don't drink Coke BTW haha, but I know so many Americans treat it almost like it's divine)
As for Slack, which I use to communicate with my publisher, I found a simple solution. I *never* look at it until I'm done with my current writing session. Since my sessions are typically 25 to 60 minutes long, it works out well enough.
Not just Slack, for that matter. I apply the same rule to any possible 'distraction'--emails, forums, social media platforms... Substack and Discord too ;)
Good article Jared. I had a similar thought when apple had their introduction “show” last week. It has become a media, entertainment event. Customers hang on every word because they must have it.
I'm late to the party, sorry! :D
So... does this mean no more Coke worshipping? :o
