One more cheat code that works for me: when I’ve got a pile of necessary but boring work that does not require real focus, just willpower to plow through it, I bath it and tackle it when I’m tired. At this point my mind stops nagging me with “there are better ways to spend your time”. As a side effect, this frees up my high-energy hours to do something more productive.
