Welcome to The Pattern Break: A short video training with an actionable resource.

One pattern. One framework. Immediate implementation.

This week: The Distraction Detox.


You sit down to do deep work. Five minutes later, you’re three tabs deep into something you didn’t need to research.

Your phone buzzes. You check it. Then Instagram. Then email. Then back to work. Except you’re not really back, your brain is still processing the fifteen things you just looked at.

By lunchtime, you’ve been “working” for four hours but accomplished what should have taken forty minutes.

You don’t have a focus problem. You have an attention problem.

Your environment is designed to fracture your attention into useless fragments. Every app wants your next five seconds. Every notification is engineered to steal your momentum.

Most people accept this as normal. Constant context-switching. Ten-minute attention spans. Surface-level work that never goes deep.

I refused to accept it.

I’ve created a 4-step framework that took me from a 10-minute attention span to 90-minute deep work sessions in just a few weeks. No apps. No complicated systems. Just strategic elimination and deliberate practice.

What you’re getting:

  • A short video training covering the complete 4 step system

  • Accompanying PDF with implementation steps you can start today

Here’s the 4 steps:

  1. The Attention Audit

  2. Delete the Escape Routes

  3. Engineer Friction

  4. Build Attention Stamina

Here’s the video training…
