Work on you rather than blaming others. Once you work on changing yourself, you will find that you either are no longer bothered by the other person or you at least have sympathy and understanding for them.

You may have a desire to use your computer or your phone, but please consider using a regular journal and a pen or pencil. Psychologically speaking, we respond better when we handwrite our journal entries; especially in the beginning. Your body is fully engaged and it will enable you to go deeper. Not to mention the fact that there is no chance your journal will start to ring or send you a notification of a new email. A paper journal allows you to focus on you, which is the whole point.
