Yeah I do this to break my inertia.

"I'm not actually going to do any work, just clear my desk, then 5 minutes youtube"

"I'm not actually going to do any work, I'm just going to get my books / laptop out, then do whatever thing for 5 minutes"

... and so on ...

You need practice at concentrating on your work.

In the same way you'd work out to build muscle strength, your mind needs regular training to stay in shape.

Start with sensible, achievable goals and improve over time.

I've been a volunteer treasurer for several medium sized non-profits.

You should have a think about what sort of charity resonates with you. Like education support, homelessness, legal support, drug rehabilitation, et cetera.

Then call a few in your area and tell them you're considering a bequest, and would like to understand some more about their organisation and how the money is used. 1

I love Google's idea of "privacy".

We will protect users privacy by ensuring they only give all their data to us.

The whole point of a representative democracy is to acknowledge that in some cases the populace lack the proper understanding to make an informed choice.
