I've still got a way to go in that department as well but it's a journey. Actually applying the knowledge you’ve gained while reading all these articles and books is key.

So far I've taken a few tips from here, a few from there, and I've been able to increase productivity rather well. I still have a hell of a long way to go though.

Especially the talkative type. In all the companies I've worked for there were very few that didn't have at least 2 or 3 people that disliked their work and would do anything possible to extend their lunches and breaks. When it comes down to it, those are the type of people that have led me down a very unproductive path in the past. After a while I tend to ignore them and get on with finishing my work. The email thing was the hardest for me and I still find myself breaking my schedule to check my mail more often than I should. I have a feeling that people have the most trouble with that one.

I try to enforce my lunch time to be not longer than an hour, but my colleagues at work are real babblers and like to linger on after lunch, chatting away for almost a full hour (it's horrible!). I'm probably just going to start working on while they chat, cos I don't like the lack of productivity. I also should stop checking my mail and everything else so often. I have five accounts / systems I check almost every 15 mins, should really cut it down to once / hour. Good tips, I should implement the few that I’m not using yet.
