Create yourself a MIT (Most Important Task) list. It should be 1-3
tasks per day that are extremely important. When doing them focus on
one at a time until it's done and then move on to the next. Stop yourself
every time you feel the urge to check your inbox and get back to work.
Never Work On Your Weekends

a machine after working for a while goes for maintenance. If it is possible - unplug and disconnect. When
you're receiving working emails and phone calls 24/7 you never really leaving your work.

Monday you need to try leaving your work at work. Spend
your weekend on your hobby, exercise or spend some quality
time with your family. On Monday morning you will feel
recharged and ready for work for 150%.
Set A Timer
If you’re a punctual person in your work place it wouldn’t take time for you to attune yourself into set a time
for yourself to begin a new project or business. If you're having trouble with doing something way longer
than you should - try to set a timer for 30-60-90 minutes.
For example, if you're spending two hours every
day just managing your inbox - set a timer for 30 minutes and do
nothing but work with your mail the whole time.
Next day set it for 60 minutes. The day after set it for 90 minutes.
When timer buzzes you can't do that task even a minute more. Than ask yourself is it really necessary to
spend 2 hours checking your inbox? Those deadlines are truly effective. During that time all you have to do
is to get your job done. No distractions. Remember, work will fill the time available for its completion.
Take Short Break
If you have a big project - divide it to the smaller pieces. Take breaks between these pieces to stay
productive. Stretch out, take a walk, meditate for a 5 minutes. That will be enough to recharge. Working for
short period with small breaks is more effective than working 6 hours straight.
You still will distract, but you can either plan your
distraction allowing yourself to spend 5 minutes looking
through the social media (set a timer) or find yourself
watching videos with cats on YouTube for two hours straight.
Learn How To Say "No"
Until you complete your current task do not take anything else.
Think about every task you take as a thing
that can or cannot bring you closer to your major goal, to your new level of
success. If that thing cannot do that - say no.
