Surfing the internet can be fun, but if you're not careful, you can waste a lot of time. You can get in trouble with your teachers at school, and your grades may drop if you're not paying attention to class lectures. Do not use your laptop for social media or games in class, and only visit relevant websites when necessary.  If you know you'll be tempted, turn off your internet before going into class and keep your note-taking file open. Reward yourself after school with thirty minutes of gaming time if you went through the whole day without distractions. When at home, monitor your surfing habits. This will help you be more productive with your time and look forward to free time when it comes. Social media can be a big time suck. Schedule time you plan to spend on social media and use willpower to stay away from temptation. The less time you spend on social media, the more time you have to study without distraction. Try planning no more than 10-20 minutes a day spent on social media. Any more can be a major distraction. Evaluate your habits and areas where you are more prone to distraction. Actively avoid situations that will tempt you and reward yourself for meeting daily goals. When you reach your goals, reward yourself for a job well done.  For example, if you spend a lot of time on Facebook and need to write an essay, promise yourself to avoid Facebook until your essay is done. Turn off your internet to avoid temptation and work until you are finished. When you're essay is printed, reward yourself with ten minutes on Facebook. Set realistic goals. If you love playing online games, "quit games cold turkey" is not very realistic. Instead, try to limit your gaming time a little more each day until you have the habit under control. Sometimes noise can be distracting. Find a quiet place where you can collect your thoughts and work without stimulation. If you cannot find a suitably quiet place, invest in headphones and play soft music while you study.  Silence your phone while you study to avoid losing focus when you receive texts or calls. Again, try to find neutral music with minimal lyrics or exciting rhythms. Piano music is usually a safe choice. Internet time can be overstimulating, and you may find it hard to focus if you spend too much time online. If you need to access your notes outside of school, consider printing out your notes or alternating how often you use it by class. Laptops are useful tools, but don't neglect your textbooks. Consult your books first for any information, then turn to the internet as a secondary resource.
