I've noticed something about the Pomodoro schedule that I've set up. The Pomodoro time period usually seems entirely too short. And I think that I know why. If I'm bouncing from place to place, doing this and doing that, and not doing a lot of coding, then yes, the time spent coding will seem short, because it was.
Now that I've got the time broken up, I need to get the concentration to work in the same manner.
Are there any ADHD programmers out there? I'm hoping to talk to a few, trade tips on how to manage a work day. I've noticed that the usual time management structures don't work. One, we often have to keep emails open so that we immediately know about apps being down, so there goes only checking a couple of times a day. I've also tried scheduling when in a day I would work on a project, but that doesn't do too well either; see #1 as to why. And so on. Any tips would be appreciated.

New software
I keep playing with some software that I bought for my phone. It can really wait until later. I have a couple of things much more important to work on, however I can't turn away from it.

Starting the day
I did pretty good for a couple of days, doing very little besides working on assignments. Today, not so much. I started off by doing some stuff that could have waited ... but would have been forgotten.
