How to concentrate on small intervals? (self.programming)

When I'm not interrupted, I can code effectively for 20 to 30 minutes. However, constant notifications from instant messaging, emails, and meetings disrupt my concentration and make it challenging to finish tasks on time.

I once read an analogy that relates to this situation, stating that just like the value of money remains the same whether you have a $100 bill or in coins, the overall time remains constant even if you have small intervals.

How do I overcome this?

This right here. My main focus is on doing the work, not replying to antsy POs and colleagues looking for answers in trivial issues. I’ll get back to them later.
