 Tip #6: Sit with good posture and stretch regularly.
 Tip #7: Have everything you need to work, near your workstation so you don't keep having to get up and come back... will lower the chances of you getting distracted and starting to do something else
 Tip #8: When you sleep. Get a good night's rest. If possible, keep a regular work and sleep schedule.
 Tip #9: When scheduling out your day, and workload. Make a scheduled block for IM's, e-mail, phone calls, etc. Nothing will ruin your groove like getting caught up on a 30-60 minute phone call. If you are running ahead of schedule, then fine. Otherwise, stick to gameplan.
 Tip #10: Make sure you take your breaks, and lunches. If possible. Leave your office (home or otherwise) for lunch, and get away from the computer. Then you will be more refreshed.
 Tip #11: Plan out your morning, day, week, month on what you want to accomplish. Make it realistic on what you can do in 8/10/12/18 hours. If you are running ahead, reward yourself, get out, take time for yourself. Do not push on to the next day's tasks. Doing this will burn you out in no time.
 Tip #12: Listen to some music while working, it usually gets me more effective and makes things less boring.
 2htip #13: Don't be afraid to commence a new project when the inspiration strikes, even if it means setting something else aside for a few hours.  You may never have the vision as clearly as in those first few moments
 Tip #14: Don't start 300 projects at once
