Things that have increased my productivity:
Concentration & awareness practices
Mind/body stuff: improving diet, intermittent fasting, intense exercise 2-4 times a week, getting enough sleep (which for me is between 7 and 9 hours each night; see also Gwern on sleep)
Figuring out how to use caffeine and other supplements
Resolving emotional blocks
Getting clearer about the motivations that lead me to spend time on each specific thing I do (somewhat related)
Increased feeling of being safe & emotionally supported by many different people
Tooling my computer to make it more of a servant, less of a master
Anki (in this direction, Tools for thought seems generally promising)
