I've noticed a link in my work between accountability, comfort, distraction, and productivity. If I'm too comfortable, I let myself get distracted. If I'm in an office, I can get distracted by others. If I'm not next to someone working, I may not hold myself accountable and slack off. But if I'm not too comfortable, and not too distracted, I can be more productive. To do this, I have to turn off slack and e-mail, and go to a room which isn't very comfortable and has no distractions. Ideally there would also be other people in there for the same purpose, for accountability. At work we have these "focus zones" where a conference room is booked for 2-5 hours a day. You can go there and just work in silence with others. If I turn off slack and e-mail, it works well. The only problem is the chairs are almost too comfortable, and conference tables aren't ideal for working on laptops.
