What tricks do you use to get yourself "in the zone"?
- by Tim Jarvis
Once I am "in the zone" I am extremely productive and code just flows out of me, often I can get 2 or 3 days coding done in 1 day. But I find that often its hard to get to that place, I find myself procrastinating, getting distracted by other things (SO for example).
Is this experience common? How do you force yourself into that state of mind? Is it simply something you can't force?
