How do you handle code completion derailing your train of thought?

Question

As in the title. I've had to turn code completion off a number of times because I need to think rather than read what code completion is spitting out. Does anyone have an elegant solution for this? Or is the elegant solution just to turn it off when I need to think?

I think in VSCode you can prevent the suggestions box from appearing automatically and only trigger when you press the key combo of your choice.
