My personal advice, as a freelancer who worked from home for almost two years, is to use a time boxing technique such as the pomodoro technique (this is the reason why I also built http://tomato.es http://tomato.es time tracker) or just find a nice coworking near your place (this is the reasong why I founded http://memecoworking.com http://memecoworking.com).
- gdubs 12y agoI stuck to pomodoro years ago while working for myself, and found it to be incredibly effective. One caveat: it doesn't work very well for more free form aspects of projects, the creative phase, etc. I no longer follow it, but the rhythm is somewhat ingrained, and I take regular breaks for context switching, etc. biggest difference is that I allow for longer stretches of productivity while being more conscious of passing the burnout point.
