Change that distracting habit of watching Youtube videos while you work!
It always ends the same way - half way through that brilliant piece of art you've been creating, you realize that it's become secondary to the squawking 'Let's Play'-er who you've been watching, and that you haven't made any progress in the last ten minutes.
We're all guilty of it sometimes.
Richard Williams' mantra is 'Unplug'.
I would love to recommend to you 'The Animation Podcast' - no doubt the King of the batch but, unfortunately, it hasn't been operational in a while. Their back catalogue deserves your attention, though.
'The Pixar Podcast' is as good as you'd imagine it to be, but has recently been closed down. Again, the back catalogue is interesting although actually, I tend to find some of the other choices more accessible and fun.

And he is of course right. However, if you have to listen to something (and I have to admit that I do more often than I don't), then treat your brain and ears to something motivational, fun, informative.
I give you the Animation Podcasts.

There are a lot of Podcasts worth listening to. These are the ones which to my knowledge are still running and being updated, and the ones I myself enjoy most. Click the titles to go to the sites.

Funny, charming, and I-cannot-even-stress-this-enough USEFUL interviews with incredibly skilled industry animators. They go in-depth on techniques and their approaches to a scene. I just wish that this particular podcast was more frequently updated!
This is more just like listening to a couple of your friends discussing recent animation news. It's a good way to keep up to date with the ins and outs of the industry, and it's strength lies in the humorous delivery of the presenters who are zany and relatable.
Just a really well done and professional podcast. A collection of interviews with a good range of industry veterans spanning a mix of disciplines. 2D, 3D, Visual Effects, etc.
