I would suggest minimize multi-tasking, create a to-do list of priorities and consider using a time-blocking method like the Pomodoro technique. Breaks are important to stay focused — try a time-blocking technique.
And listen to the right music, I love listening to lofi when I work, really gets me in monk mode.
As a tech enthusiast involved in startup life, I swear by setting specific goals for each work session, taking short breaks to recharge, and implementing the Pomodoro technique to stay focused and productive. What tricks do you use to keep distractions at bay during your work hours?
