The term "attention management" might not apply to everyone, too. I'm most effective when I'm in the zone, which usually comes easiest when I'm listening to music and rapidly flicking between things. My thought process works best when there's a fraction of distraction and when I'm in a playful mood, not when there are no distractions and not when the only thing in front of me is the task at hand. My thoughts slow down without something there to keep them moving. No known conditions or attention disorders and doubtful of having one. I just work best in a creative or playful mood, not a concentrated one. I'm surprised it's so alien and uncommon for programmers, it's not uncommon in other more traditionally creative fields.
