Before you go to work you need to train your mind not to drift and keep it focused.
One of the best things to do is get a good nights sleep which for most people is hard to do with our busy lives. You need to keep your mind working, sitting staring at the walls or computer monitor just ads to the problem. Try working on puzzles or word anagrams,crosswords etc. This type of brain exercises actually makes your mind work and keeps you more alert. -

When you get to work you need to set up a list of goals and stick with them. Write them down and concentrate on getting them done this keeps your mind working on achieving the task. Keep focused and try not to let your mind wonder off thinking about some other problem in your life.
If something is bothering you write it down and come back to it later this tricks your mind into completing the task at hand. If you are sitting at your job stand up a do some stretching ,take some deep breaths this will also help. -

If you can listen to music at work this can be a big help in keeping your mind focused on the job at hand.Upbeat music, rock and roll keeps your concentration on the job,it really works I have done this many times. Remember to keep a list of your work tasks and write down the time it takes to get them done.Your mind should stay focused because it will say "we need to get this done" You can also write down a schedule of times to relax,talk with coworkers,take a break,eat etc, this will keep you focused and on schedule. The type of food you eat can also cause you to loose focus and concentration. Stay away from turkey it is proven that it can help you fall asleep,too much caffeine can also have bad side effects if not taken in moderation.

it is always a good practice to break tasks into smaller tasks that can be achieved within few hours instead of a week or day long. By doing this, we would have a sense of control and accomplishment.
