I just started taking similar steps a couple of weeks ago as well. - LeechBlock for Firefox, RescueTime as well. - Cleared out my browser bookmarks and history of distracting sites so they don't pop up as suggestions all the time. - Turned off email notifications on my phone and my work machine. It's amazing how easily one little "ding" noise could break my focus. - During the workday I only allow myself to read industry-related articles and blog posts, so I'm not so entertained that I lose track of time. If I still don't feel like I'm getting enough done, then I am considering going back to a dumbphone, making use of timers, and other more drastic measures. So far I'm doing much better though.
