As far as what my coding zone looks like, ours are very similar.

I have found working at night is the best for me.

When I'm coding I find that interruptions don't bother me, because I usually become hyper focused and I block out everything around me.

Strangely enough, I like to watch movies while coding. Preferably ones that motivate me like Limitless, or V for Vendetta, or the Social Network.

Turns out, if I have music or tv playing in the background that works just as well.

I try to eat health and, I don't drink pop or coffee (they make me crash hard once I break out of the zone.)

Finally, once I start coding I must finish what I sat down to start. That way each time I code, when I'm done I feel like I have accomplished something. Which in turn makes me want to do it again.
