I've been implementing a "power hour" approach, and it's been quite helpful.
Basically, I write down a task (or a few smaller tasks) to tackle during a dedicated 1 hr. In this hour I can do nothing else.
I've found that I am forced into some kind of flow, and am forced to confront the discomfort that can come from actually focus on things. It's not hard to be uncomfortable for an hour a day.
I don't really know many others that do exactly this, but this has helped me (Also, I have ADHD and focus can be an issue for me).
- Chunklight 7y agoI agree. For those with ADHD, especially on the instant release ritalin, it can help to line a "power hour" up with important tasks, things you know you're going to avoid when the meds wear off, or things that take a lot of planning but make later stuff easier. Also knocking something out early in the day can create momentum and stop inertia.
