The problem
Sound Familiar?
“I sit down to study, but notifications keep pulling me away. An hour passes and I've barely made progress.”
Constant distractions
“I feel like I studied all day, but my grades don't reflect it. I have no idea how much time actually went to each subject.”
Where did the time go?
“Starting is the hardest part. I keep putting off that essay until it becomes a last-minute panic session.”
The procrastination spiral
“I open TikTok for ‘just a quick break’ and suddenly it's 2 hours later.”
The algorithm knows exactly how to keep you scrolling
