I'd add to that list the following:

  • Stay in communication with your team on a regular basis. Schedule this of course, but at least take the time on a roughly daily basis to do a short meeting to have everyone share their progress. This both helps keep the team ethos going, and it also helps to keep some people motivated.
  • Try to keep to a schedule. Especially make a point to try and keep your time 'at work' roughly the same as what it would normally be. It seems stupid, but the less you deviate from what would be a 'normal' schedule for you, the easier it is to stay focused and avoid burnout. The two biggest issues for people who are not used to working at home are avoiding distractions and knowing when to stop working, and this helps a lot with both.
