Focus on what you do daily to keep your focus and motivation level. This could include taking a two-minute walk, standing up and stretching, or switching to a different task for a while to break up the monotony. The interviewer wants to know that you have some kind of coping mechanism and don't just plow through work without taking a brief moment to regroup.

Avoid implying that you don't need a minute or two occasionally. We all do. If you say, "I stay hyper-focused until I drop," they won't be impressed. You don't want to say you take a 20-minute break every hour, but you should show that you can step away for a moment to collect your thoughts.

"I find I am much more efficient and effective if I stand up and take a two-minute break when time allows, particularly if I am working on a detailed or monotonous project. This allows me to clear my head and refocus on the task at hand."

"I am often tasked with multiple priorities with similar deadlines. If I begin to lose focus, I may put down the task at hand and switch to another one for a while, assuming the first task is not a MUCH higher priority."
