Practice things that require long-focus in all parts of your life. Read books instead of watching TV. Cook instead of eating out or warming up prefab.

If you have to read an article, before you start reading, remind yourself that you tend to drift away, so set a goal on how much to read before you allow yourself to take a pause.
