On the 5th Day of Christmas, Windows 11 Gave to Me...
Clear Focus Sessions
Ever sit down to work with the best intentions, only to be pulled away by notifications, pings, and “just one quick check” moments?
By the time you look up, the holiday cookie tray is empty and your task list hasn’t moved. Windows 11 has a built-in way to bring calm back to your workday.
Tucked inside the Clock app, Focus Sessions help you block distractions, work in intentional time blocks, and even pair your work rhythm with music.
Think of it as a productivity elf quietly guarding your time.
Why This Belongs on the Nice List

Encourages deep work with timed focus blocks

Before Santa finishes checking his list, try this:

Choose how long you want to focus
Start your session and let Windows handle the rest

The Pro Elf Tip
Pair Focus Sessions with a realistic task list.
Add only one or two meaningful tasks per session. Finishing strong beats juggling too many ornaments at once.
