Some of these might help.. Compartmentalize your time: First, dedicate space for work only, with a door you can close. If not, separate the space with folding dividers, or something. Make your desk face away from the rest of your living area. If it feels different than the rest of your place it helps a lot. Get an oversized whiteboard you would not expect to have in a home. It feels out of place and helps. 6 to 8 feet wide. A piece of glass board mounted on the wall can fit in nice at home too. Get separate devices for personal use instead of work. If need be set up a smaller 2nd desk for personal use. Shower and dress every day for work. It's still work. Just like sleep is a shower for your brain to feel fresh and focused so is telling your body you're ready to work. Have a comfortable chair that feels like work, not home. Have a pair of comfortable monitors, 24 to 27" setup. When I leave this setup I only have my laptop and it doesn't feel like serious work anymore. Try to do some meetings by phone only, pop on a good headset and go for a walk. You might be surprised. If you're used to a commute, help your brain with a familiar experience. In the morning, "go to work" by walking out your door, around the block and back inside to work. At the end of the day "go home" with a similar Wallin, ideally in the opposite direction. Wear running shoes indoors that you put on during work hours only and take them off when working. Take coffee breaks, physically away from your desk. Consider getting a caffeine maker you only use for work. When possible, structure your end of day meetings to be lighter / creative to help transition. On Friday afternoons build a routine to unplug by 5 or 6 every day, and then do it consistently to let you have your weekend. Last, but not least, it might seem small, but give yourself permission to disconnect so you can recharge and your brain can come back full force on Monday. This is literally something you cna tell your brain. The time away from the keyboard is as important as the time at the keyboard.
