I have room to improve on this too but I have two pieces of advice.

1) Don't do things by yourself. You're more likely to switch tasks because doing so won't leave anyone else in a lurch. Incorporate others to play parts in whatever you're doing so it's a team effort.

2) Announce your projects and a deadline for them in public, either on a blog or twitter. You wouldn't want to appear as someone who jumps from task to task if people are aware of a previously-announced project and deadline.
