ditto.... I also do the "trick yourself into doing things" technique.
Good to hear that other people go through the exact same thought process.
I don't know how you manage working from home though... going to the office in a morning works wonders for me. I tend to regress over the weekend; I'm at my peak on Wednesday and Thursday.
- vgr 16y agoThe short answer is: you get used to it, but it is not ideal or a particularly healthy work lifestyle. It has many of the same problems as solitary confinement within a prison. Since the pattern is increasing all around, more social support structures are emerging around work-from-home lifestyles, but frankly, the current state is very primitive.
- nitrogen 16y agoThere was a coworking space about half a block away from my current location, but it closed down. Unfortunately I didn't find out it closed until after I moved here (partly to be close to it) :/. Perceived cost of living keeps me from moving to a different metro area with better services.
- dwwoelfel 16y agoI also do the "trick yourself into doing things" technique. That may not be a good long-term strategy. If someone is in a slump, then he already can't trust himself to do what he knows is in his best interest. I don't think someone in that state should do anything that might degrade his trust in himself even further.
