    IRL checklist
    - a lack of plans for the rest of the day
    - discord with friends while you are at it
    - 1-2 bottles of water within arms reach
    - a good chair
    - nice music with good speakers/headphones/earphones
    - good air conditioning/fan
    - just finished having something nice to eat
    - just cleared everything within the bladder and/or rectal cavity
    - some cleaning cloth/ wet wipes cuz hands gonna get sweaty/oily over the hours
    - at least 7 hours of sleep before and being awake for no more than 8 hours

    if there are IRL pets, please don't forget them
    remember to feed and care for them
    they will be sad :'(

    also do remember to stand up and move around once in awhile while taking a short break, deep vein thrombosis is potentially fatal


    gameplay checklist
    - cleared etc inventory
    - use inventory with at least 300-500 elixirs/ mana bulls per hour
    - 400 pet foods

    Music really helps to keep me motivated! Besides that, I swear by taking a 5 min break every hour.

    Honestly, just don't overdo it, don't push yourself over your own limits, it can cause you to burn out and stop wanting to play. If you feel like you can do 1-2 hours a day, that's perfectly fine. Slow and steady wins the spaghetti!

    Good luck with Gen30! You got this :D

    Snacks! Also relaxing, don't be too pressured to give the best service, because that stress could be counterproductive.

    As for how it works for me, I wouldn’t have called it distractions. For me it’s the only way to stay sane while I grind for hours.
    If I had no music I’d probably break my keyboard :)

    Anyway do what works for you but don’t stress yourself because of this kind of comments lol

    So what was with this nonsense I read the other day in the news about how Millenials are lazy and don't work hard to earn? Opposite seems to be true reading this thread!

    Agreed, whether it's mastering tc rotations or spawn tracking, it really helps me to keep focus, if I do one rotation bad then I make sure that the next 5 minutes must be perfect, it keeps me focused and actually interested in playing the game, but that is not true to everyone, if you do not have the passion to perfect your leech and deliver the best you could, then you will not enjoy it the same way I do.
    as for more little things that keep me focused:
    1.stay hydrated, stay full( if I'm hungry I completely lose it within 1 hour)
    2.for me specifically, music keeps me more focused than not, that changes with each person tho, music can be a distraction for some.
    3.every 20 minutes I pause, i stand up and stretch, this made a huge difference for me.
    4.feel free to take breaks as long as you pause the timer, if you need to do something it is okay, anything really, don't stress your self to finish the leech asap, go do what you need to do and come back to finish your leech, it is okay as long as you deliver your 60 minutes fully like promised.

    in general hard work pays off in the long term, it's better to sell 2 hours of harps leech and semi afk every day than sell 10 hours of skeles every day for 2 weeks and stop forever, it's about consistency, find a way that is comfortable for you and keep at it, you will get far.

    All I can say is plan a series of netflix/anime shows then watch while leeching. But once I got bored of it, I changed to youtube vlog, food recipes etc. Once in awhile, I see my guildchat having conversations, I pause my video/movie/show, play some music and chat with them till you realised you been chatting with them for an hour!

    And of course before long hours of leech, a good sleep, a good shower/toilet break, a good brunch/dinner meal and sometimes I go for a run.

    I have a energy drinks (Milo etc) /plain water to keep myself hydrated and a fan/air-con if its hot with my expensive ass comfortable chair. Some snacks/sweets beside me if I’m bored and I wanna chew something.

    Make sure you don't have anything lined up. Remember to eat and hydrate before you start, maybe set aside some snacks you can munch on while you're leeching. Have a show to binge on or a playlist to listen to.

    Sometimes I split up the hours, maybe do 2-3 hours early in the day, take a break and do something else for a bit. Maybe make another meal or something then do another 3 hours or so later in the day. Definately remember to stretch though. Maybe take a 3 minute break and stretch out and grab some water before you continue the next hour.

    You think about all the gear you can explode later with your fat stacks of mesos.
