Part of the problem is that I am also not jumping into different Contexts often enough. (In fact I often do not bother to add a context for things that must be done at the computer screen and this may not help) I rather feel that I should allocate block of time for each context. However I can see no obvious way to put this sort of thing into MLO. Do you have any hints / tricks that you use? e.g. I am toying with using a kitchen timer for this sort of thing... i.e. only allow a certain amount of time in one sitting for each context.
