I've worked from my house for roughly 10 years and I will be honest there are days when I question my own sanity. I have a wife and teenagers, so after around 3pm my day is useless, hence I work early or late, and I just expect 3-10pm to be crappy for work (which generally is totally fine). Currently I am working early mornings anyway, like 4am to 1pm or so. There are also some days where my wife just has 0 respect for my office door and just keeps walking in interrupting me until she sees me look at her with that specific stay the fuck away, but remember I love you, look. Years of doing this has led to a balance but it takes time to get to, and some days it just doesn't work to be honest. If I know I have a critical day coming up, I always prep my family ahead of time, if it becomes one of those days midway through, I lock the door and tell them to give me time. They have figured this out and it works pretty good now without any friction or hurt feelings. Outside of this, I also like to schedule and spend time at hot desk spaces some days and just go to a coffee shop or similar places other times. It helps to just have a different physical view some days IMO. I also will just sometimes leave the house without a destination and find a corner in a park or near the ocean and work, which anyplace near water is my personal heaven, so that usually lets me function and refocus some which is helpful. I have done super critical conference calls from my truck when I am out or even from my back yard with just a quick finger for mute. Honestly sometimes I think this is better for me personally, because being outside and walking around almost helps me think clearer some days. I figured this out when I worked in the office actually, as I used to use walking (outside) meetings as a way to do 1-1's.
