Hmm asking for more work? I feel if work is heavy enough it’s hard to get distracted
I have a ton of work and still keep wasting time 😭
I keep getting distracted too and I think it’s because I’m lonely :( Living alone, clinging to my phone for some semblance of human interaction 
I think this is big part of my problem too

I use headphones, if one of us is wearing it means do not disturb. If we are not wearing it means please disturb with memes or anything you want.
Try the pomodoro technique. There a ton of apps that utilize that method. You can download for the phone or smart watch.
I’ll give this a try! Thanks :)
I get up early before most folks are bugging me and knock the day’s work out. Then I basically nap, go for runs, slowly tackle projects in the pipeline and dial in for meetings
Of course this isn’t a constant- this is what I do when I’m not in new biz etc. I know that if I don’t get that work done first thing, it isn’t happening

I have PLENTY to do, but still have trouble focusing. I don’t think the distraction is uncommon. I take micro breaks, like refilling my water bottle, walking around the room, letting the dog out, etc. Music helps me a lot to focus. I drink coffee and if I’m REALLY struggling, I take Vitamin B after eating, but not too late in the day. Try to avoid the social media rabbit holes....
Set alarms and reminders. Keep a schedule. Take breaks when you need, but also keep a handle on gushing productivity.

Make sure your environment is conducive to productivity. Is it quiet and isolated? Are you surrounded by media and televisions and other things that will easily distract you should you ever get bored of your current task?
