"... I often find myself with piles of work to do and many projects to complete but yet distracted ..." Focus, discipline & strategy. You have to focus on getting your tasks done. Be disciplined in not being unintentionally distracted and plan a strategy to avoid or discourage distractions. - Focus by planing exactly what you need to achieve in a given time. - discipline your self by sticking at the required task - I plan thinking tasks in the morning, with short breaks. then in the afternoon more unstructured tasks. I also keep 2 browsers open for instance if I'm working. One for work, the other for distraction. Then avoid looking at the distraction browser. Keep posting, reading and non work activities to a minimum by scheduling time wasters for short periods.
