Ask HN: Any tips for staying focused while working at home?

Get all chores done (dishes, laundry, yardwork, grocery shopping, paying bills) outside work hours. Consider working in a public library.

Yes I think I will definitely look for a public library. Thanks

Cleanly separate your workspace from your living space. Introduce voluntary deadlines and a set routine

Great, that's a good one. Yeah, I'm having some trouble splitting time between work and personal life. Thanks.

It also helps to work on your basics. Good sleep and nutrition is 80% of all motivation issues. Also examining what motivates you at the job in the first place. Deadlines? Not letting others down? The social role that work gives you? Fear of unemployment? The joy of laboring? Escaping a difficult family life? A sense of flow? The answer will help you pinpoint why your motivation is flagging and how to resolve it

Use introspection to determine why your productivity has decreased, then fix that.

I have had some trouble adapting to this new dynamic.
