Great question - I think the more well-defined your next task is, the easier it's going to be for you to context switch because you don't have to take time to figure out what to work on next. One thing to experiment with is when you're done working for the day, jot down a note of specifically what you want to work on the next time you sit down at your computer. The clearer it is and the less amount of problem solving it requires, the easier it's going to be for you to get back into the flow.
- yitchelle 11y agoThanks for the great answer. Is that how it panned out for you? Love to hear your experience about this. Typically, I would find it difficult for get into the zone to get work done within 45min period. Huge congrats to you for being pulling this off in such difficult circumstances.
- matt1 11y agoI suspect that if you had a hard limit of 45 minutes after which time you could no longer work on your task, you'd adapt and find yourself able to get in the zone much more quickly. It also becomes easier the more you do it. I've been doing side projects for many years.
- yitchelle 11y agoI guess that phrase "adapt or die" is apt here. Thanks for the answers.
