Here's a productivity tricks that works for me:

Reason why I stop working on a project is because after a while (or 10 minutes...), it just gets boring.

So I toggle between 3-4 similarly important projects a day. The excitement of doing something new when I switch helps me keep working (just on a different project).

Yes there is a cost to mentally switching regularly but it's worth it to avoid the much higher cost of watching Youtube instead!

Very similar to the highly effective Structured Procrastination method - http://www.structuredprocrastination.com/
