I feel like I have got used to the habit of distraction, especially when my phone is bymyside. Shall I leave it somewhere out of reach or try not be distracted while keeping it bymyside?

Turn off the ringer on the phone so you don’t hear it and place it in another room so you don’t see it. Both actions when taken together will ensure you have a place for concentration

This is something that is very new to our species. So the struggle is understandable but one must have time periods where one needs to make sure that they are not distracted by it
