Here are a few things I do.
1. try to get on a schedule. I tend to go to bed and get up about the same time everyday. It doesn't have to be early, just whenever you are happiest.
2. Make a daily to do list and focus on getting everything for that day done. Then before you quit for the day (and even throughout the day) make a list for the next day. If there are things you do every day make a to do list for each day of the week.
3. Focus your energy. I tend to work in spurts. I will focus hard and work as fast and hard as I can for about 45 minutes. Then I will take a 10-15 minute break to use the bathroom, get something to drink, get up and walk around, hit GFY or whatever. then after the break I am back at it for another 45 minutes. It works for me and you will be shocked how much you can get done in 45 minutes if you focus hard.
4. Shut out the world. Treat this like a real job so don't text your friends or fuck off or watch TV or do things you wouldn't normally do at a job. If it distracts you from work, don't do it.
5. Set goals for yourself. Be they weekly or monthly or however long, make a list of things you want to achieve and work hard towards them.
Just my thoughts and things that I do.
