Two main strategies when you're at work:
1. Maintain a habit of removing/ignoring your usual tempting stimuli. eg. Put phone on silent in another room. Boot into a boilerplate user account or minimal linux distro with insane browser restrictions when using the computer. Keep your desk completely clear except for the materials you need to work with.
2. If you can't focus, introduce repetitive music or sounds that you can briefly enjoy from time to time but that also compel you to focus/keep you in the groove. vg music, electronic music, top 40, white noise. Doesn't matter as long as it's not complicated or flashy.
And a major strategy to employ for the rest of your time (probably more important than forcing the above): always declutter your spaces throughout the day. Unironically clean your room, do the dishes, rearrange furniture, vacuum, draw something etc. Every time you actively make things around you cleaner/easier/aesthetic/more optimal, you practice focus.
Avoiding distraction (more likely, letting it happen without ruining your day) is a skill that takes months of 5 to 10 minute experiments throughout every day.

every sunday write down what you want to do the next week.
Schedule in two things every day, no more. It's enough If you only do two things a day. Plan things in blocks of time. every day has 2 blocks of 3 hours. Morning and midday. The evenings is another 3 hours if you have deadlines but if you don't you can do whatever, you've done your two things.

whatever
just make sure when you sit down to work you are not also doing a bunch of other shit too. Don't browse the internet, don't go around your kitchen to eat, don't breathe. do the thing you want to do.

as in, if you are distracted that is because you are not sure what you are supposed to be doing.

this also >>12556769 cleaning helps, but not while you are working obviously. turn off notifications on as many things you can.
