In my humble opinion, a set of people here have this "no focus problem." (depending on my form on the day - me included). One can see it more positively as Too Many Aptitudes problem, which gives it a significantly better viewpoint, as elaborated here [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1486708 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1486708]. Actually, I think the previous #1 article [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5616786 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5616786] reflects this by reaching #1 on HN!
You all are smart people. Else these essays/articles wouldn't exist!
But, as edw519 pointed out:
The single most important thing I do to "achieve laser focus
and concentration" is to work in such a way that I don't need
"laser focus and concentration" to get my work done.
This has to be done the night before.

David Kadavy wrote about his related approach here [http://kadavy.net/blog/posts/mind-management-intro http://kadavy.net/blog/posts/mind-management-intro] what was reposted a few days ago, as far as I remember. I really like this viewpoint. Take note of David's words, especially:
If you can’t meditate for 2 minutes, you have bigger problems than being “too busy.”
There is a significant difference between being dispersed and having a disease.
