Also: build better tools (and get better at using the ones you have).
If you can squirrel away a little bit of time here and there to make hard things easier, then you can eventually start breaking tasks down into chunks that fit better into a day of interruptions.
This has been the only way that I've found to consistently increase my productivity no matter how much I'm procrastinating or being distracted at the time.
