5.Train Your Hyperfocus
You can’t just switch your trait on and off. But you can learn what causes you to zero in on certain things. Case in point: You’re likely to lose yourself only in activities that you find interesting. In other words, you can set the stage — or not — for going into hyperfocus mode.
6.ID Your Triggers
Take note of what grabs your attention and makes you tune out. Can you fritter away a whole day shopping online, or researching historical trivia? This can help you spot what sets off your hyperfocus. Once you know, you can take steps to manage it.
