I try my hardest to ONLY work in “dungeon mode”. I find that it allows me to focus better on work when that’s what I’m supposed to be doing, and it also allows me to better focus on family time when that’s what I’m doing (which means not thinking about work). Basically I get higher quality, and more focused, time all around. This is compared to before where everything was a jumbled, stressful, and distracting mess that was not good for my productivity or quality of life.
Totally agreed! It sounds like what you're creating is the "disconnect" between working at home and living at home. I used to also go for a walk around my neighborhood as soon as I've finished work, just to break up the trip from one room to another. I've found that really useful too, and I can see the difference now that my home office is more integrated into the rest of the house. Thanks for your comment!
