I've never made a change in my life with the conscious purpose to become more productive. But there have been a couple of periods in my life when my productivity was higher, so it was tempting to examine what circumstances were present that could explain those good times.

I have no positive answers. It's more like I am usually very productive as long as there's not some circumstances that slow me. Actually it's very easy to find the causes for my lack of productivity: illness, family problems or toxic workplace.

So my advice is: get the monkey off your back and forget the details.
