Most everyone has had the experience of getting sucked into a Web site, spending more time there than they planned and not getting things done that matter.  This creates feelings of disappointment, regret and stress.  What if your Web browser worked to better support your focus by either restricting access to certain sites or tracking the time spent on these sites?  Stay Focused is an extension for the Chrome browser that does just that.

Once you have installed the extension, you can set the parameters that will best help you stay focused and on-task while online.  For example, you can decide to limit your time on Pinterest to 30 minutes each day.  Stay Focused will keep track of your time on Pinterest and restrict access to the site when your time is up.  You can also completely block certain sites during a specified period of time so that your are not able to play video games during your scheduled work time.

If you’re a Chrome user and would benefit from support to help you stay focused and on task while on your computer or want a way to manage how you’re spending your time online, give Stay Focused a try.
