I'll repeat what I said the last time this came up: consider that it may be depression. Depression can cause ADHD-like symptoms. It can creep up on you slowly, so you don't even realize you've become depressed. And it can be very, very hard to get out of on your own. Aside from that, the Pomodoro technique helps me quite a lot. Not only do the 25-minute stretches provide a clear, definite period of focus, getting yourself to think about tasks in 25 minute chunks forces you to more deeply plan how you'll spend your time. Often, we don't get started on tasks because we feel overwhelmed, because we don't have an actual plan or scope. As a side benefit, I'm seeing my time estimation skills getting better as I work on this.
