Body Doubling

Sometimes all you need is someone else in the room.

Body doubling is a focusing strategy where one or more people work on their own tasks in the presence of another person. It's been shown to help with motivation, focus, and follow-through, especially for students who struggle with procrastination or getting started on tasks.
