How can we avoid getting distracted by temptations?

From: Divyadev

Many a times prji some dirty images on billboards or even some beautiful faces on street engulf the mind with all propositions to satisfy the cravings within. They either force one to look at them or force one to contemplate them. The hallunicatory effect seems to last for may days before the urge to gratify subsides. My question is prji that when mind is clouded all over what practical steps could be taken to get relieved from it?
