Effective remote work is about prioritizing. Work and Work/Life balance breaks down when you lose intention with how you spend your time. Work from home can be less structured and as a result requires more intention. This can involve communicating Deep Work and Deep Breaks (e.g. with Slack Status [1]) so that teammates know when you're unavailable. I've learned to set a clear intent each morning. I allocate and protect Deep Work time for my Main Thing and don't let almost anything pre-empt it. As different tasks from Work and Home come up, I capture them quickly in such a way that I can deal with them later. (full disclosure - building bytebase.io to make it really fast to get things down to come back to later).
