I am on my first month working from home. While I am not a huge fan of it, either I work from home, or I lose my job.
My biggest gripes about telecommuting is that I have a hard drive focusing. Something about the process of getting up and getting ready and LEAVING the house, puts my brain into this mode of "time to work!" While telecommuting I can get up and get ready, but there's nothing there that convinces my brain I'm going to work.

- Killswitch 12y agoYeah I'm still setting up my second room as an office. Right now I'm sitting on my couch with laptop on lap. Not very helpful. Along with that, I'm also changing my diet and even starting to go to the gym since it's right across the street. Hopefully these things help.
- jfoutz 12y agoI'd recommend, get up and go to the gym before work. As others mentioned, having that daily routine where you transition to work mode is really helpful.
- Killswitch 12y agoThat's the goal. Thank you for solidifying that goal as being the right steps. Appreciate it.
