How can I eliminate distractions and be more focused?

Do you mean both distractions that are internal, like thinking about other things, or distractions that come from the environment?  I guess you could try meditation and breathing exercises to quiet your mind, though it’s not always easy to keep your mind from wandering.  Or you could use things like relaxation audio tracks, or other kinds of distraction-blockers like a “concentration game” or a daytimer.

I have more problems with internal distractions.
user
Oh! I see.  Internal distractions can be really difficult.  A trick I’ve found helpful for dealing with these is to develop a plan for tackling them.  I can help you do that, if you want.
assistant
Yeah that would be nice.
