I found myself in the same problem when I've become web developer - my attention was weakening from month to month, even having healthy work and rest, probably because of lots of distractions that internet brough. End up using Pomodoro Technique. http://www.pomodorotechnique.com/ http://www.pomodorotechnique.com/ (site is down currently, however it seems to be temporary). In short, from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique
1) decide on the task to be done
2) set the pomodoro (timer) to 25 minutes
3) work on the task until the timer rings; record with an x
4) take a short break (5 minutes)
5) every four "pomodoros" take a longer break (15–20 minutes)
That way, after a few month of working that way I could make about 8 pomodoros a day (comparing to 2 at start) and it made me merely 4 times more productive, also attention after that kind of training started to improve.
