they're using Trello to write a Trello post on how they're using Trello to work on Trello.

Awesome! Congrats guys.

- no email - no im - no texting or phone calls

- knowing _exactly_ what I want to achieve, no exceptions (this doesn't include the how part but only the what part) - repeatedly playing the same music for hours, closing out every noise that makes me think about anything else but the task - not engaging in any other activities on the computer I'm working on before I start working because I find myself going back to those activities from time to time which is a huge distraction - last but not least a bottle of water or a cup of tea

One hack that has really, really helped me is putting what I'm doing next into my git commit logs.

For example: git commit -a -m "Finished writing tests for Car model. Now implementing car.drive, car.park, and car.accelerate."
