Sometimes I find it easier to switch gears if I have everything timed/scheduled and if I group related activities together--go from an activity that involves writing to an activity that involves reading, for example....instead of an activity that involves writing to mowing the lawn. (Unfortunately I can't do this with everything.)
I've found that I often need at least 15 minutes to tear myself away from one thing and focus on another successfully, so setting timers for myself helps a bit. I've also told family that I need warnings for changes--as much notice as possible and then a 10-20 minute heads up, if they can manage it.

In the upper left-hand corner of the screen, where you see "

Inbox" is the search button for the search function.
