Social media is a part of our lives: it is a powerful tool for communication, learning and entertainment. But how to pull yourself together if the working day is in full swing, and the cute photos of cats in your feed are not end-to-end?
Filtering information
To completely abandon social networks, including Vkontakte, is not the best solution: with their help it is convenient to negotiate meetings with people, communicate with friends and relatives who are far from you, and get a lively opinion on various issues. Quite often Vkontakte even manages to settle business issues.
Therefore, the first thing to do is to make your page useful. Unsubscribe from entertaining publics and communities, in return - find educational ones, moreover, those that are related to your profession. Keep them small: the more subscriptions you have, the more often the feed is updated, and the continuous, uninterrupted flow of information is a monstrous time killer. Of your time.
Then - unsubscribe from people you don't know or are not interested in. In moments of procrastination, you inevitably find yourself on the page of a stranger, methodically flipping through other people's photos. The fewer contacts, the less the temptation to spend an hour wandering through endless pages.
Ask your colleagues to email you and install a client program that notifies you of a new letter. So you will not miss important messages and you will not have an excuse for Vkontakte.
"Vkontakte" and mail
There are two equally effective ways to link mail and Vkontakte. If you lead an active life on social networks, unsubscribe from the mailings. Checking your mailbox for work issues, you will see notifications of new letters, requests, invitations - it will be difficult to resist and not read. And not to answer. And don't see anything else since you're here.
Another way is absolutely the opposite: if they don't write to you often, subscribe to the newsletter and check not the social network, but the mail. Why stop by if no one needs an urgent answer? And news can be done at a specially designated time.
Business time
You probably don't like the idea of watching a TV show during office hours. Or throwing cleaning in the middle to read a book, and then reluctantly pull away from it and get down to business again. Making time for entertainment, add "Vkontakte" there - your updated small feed may well be read before bedtime, or at lunchtime. You can reply to messages at the same time, just like parse invitations, reply to comments and count "likes". After a productive day full of useful things, it is permissible to relax at the computer. The main thing is to make sure that Vkontakte's place is not taken by any other “time killer”, for example, mobile games.
