No tricks (Score 1)

There are no tricks. No good books, no magic potions. You need to stay away from the Internet, including /., while you're working! Turn off your phones, turn off any music or TVs. Get yourself away from any other distractions, like people, especially boy/girl friends. Set goals for the day and for the week, and reward yourself in small ways for meeting those goals. Don't lose hope after a failure, but redouble your efforts. If you find that ultimately, you can't do it, after really giving it all you've got, you should seriously think about a plan B, perhaps a different career.
