I always thought it was more a matter of self-discipline but maybe some tasks, by their very nature, are more distractive than others. The receptive ones are obvious. Exercise for 20 minutes, take a walk to the pond and get back refreshed and so on. The trick is in identifying the distractive ones and then doing something about it i.e. not succumbing to their temptation!(Like now, for example -- when trying to read some renewable energy articles, I start leaving a comment at this article! :)) Time to go reflect on why I do this! ;) Mostly all distractive.
