It's all about distracting yourself. You can distract your eyes, your hands, your ears, your nose, or your taste.

For example, video games are the worst distraction because your eyes and ears are being distracted. However, the worst part about it is that your hands are distracted. You really can't do anything else effectively while playing video games.

Find an activity that distracts you in ways that allow you to still be productive. My favorite is my ears and ears only. I listen to my favorite podcasts while doing chores around the house. It makes such a difference, I almost considered getting rid of my television.
