Productivity Tips for a Sound Designer's Daily Routine

I’ve been exploring how to weave productivity into my work as a sound designer, and I’d love to hear your thoughts. Balancing creative projects with deadlines can be tricky, especially when inspiration doesn’t always strike on schedule. What strategies have helped you stay focused without stifling creativity? I’m curious about tools or habits that make it easier to manage multiple audio edits or field recordings. Also, how do you handle distractions when you’re deep in sound mixing? Any advice would be wonderful thanks in advance!
