What I do to enjoy my life when working from home. Tips are tightly coupled to each other:
- Work six hours per four days a week or less
- Invest more time and energy in family
- Take a day off if I want or need it
- Talk to people I like. Simply say "thanks for X"
- Make two hour break in case of distractions. Preferably go outside.
- Start workday after siesta if the morning is messy
- Get a job which requires a progress and results instead of time tracking and Slack presence 9-to-5
- Document progress in areas of life
- Reward myself for accomplishments
- Do more, consume (read, watch, listen) less
- Sometimes work ten to twelve hours per day
- Do something for fun and learning
- Exercise yoga each morning. Preferably without interruptions (wake up one hour earlier than son and wife)
- Exercise through the day
- Do breaks each half of hour (pomodoro)
