When I need to focus, I just tap on my nerdy side and block my mind from the outer world. Sometimes I get so deep into this state that my wife, sitting in front of me across the table cannot get my attention. It might sound weird, maybe a little psychotic, but it&#39;s honestly what helps me concentrate. How do I do that? I focus on the task and all aspects involving it to the tiny details, until it&#39;s all I can think of.
