MINDSET Getting in the "zone" or "flow"

[Olimac21]

How do you normally get focused to do difficult or long hours of work? Do you have any routines or mind games you use to improve performance?

I always go for a run before I need to do focused work, it helps me concentrate afterwards. A very good night sleep is also essential.

I wear some nice clothes, go to a quiet coffee shop or a public library, where there is no distractions and where many other people are also working. I get a large cup of good quality coffee and start working. Short breaks every 30mins, and longer break after a few hours.
