Currently I'm using the Pomodoro technique. This involves working in 25 minute blocks. Each Pomodoro (25 minute block) is an intense work session, no distractions etc.  I'm finding this very helpful.

I.e 4 hours and 10 minutes of work per day. On top of this, I'll often read a hacking/coding book as well. I don't time this.

I say 'hacking', but in reality I mean anything that I feel is helping me improve at hacking. So right now I'm not doing any hacking, but I'm learning how to use Linux, which is useful in relation to hacking.  So, in the interest of sharing how I'm getting on. Here's my work diary so far in Pomodoro's: 30/3/14 - 3 Coding Pom's.
