For those of you who are working from home, how do you manage to maintain your focus and productivity? Personally, I find it helpful to have a dedicated workspace and to set clear boundaries with my partner. During work hours, I don't allow any disturbances from my partner so that I can stay focused. Additionally, I take regular breaks to keep myself refreshed and energized. What strategies do you use to stay disciplined while working from home?
 
Well, for me, I have a sign hanging on my bedroom door saying "do not disturb" whenever I am working, and it's so helpful because I am away from temptation and disturbances, and my nephews initiatively stay quiet whenever I put up the sign too.
 
I rarely work from home I can understand why it's hard there are a lot of distractions so putting your phone on not disturb can help also you can put it in the other room keep your desk clean there are bunch of things you can do to prevent you from not doing work

That is awesome! It is great to know that your family respects your work hours and does not interrupt you when that sign is up. Some family members can be quite insensitive, so it is good to have people around who understand and support your work.

You are right, my friend. Working from home comes with a lot of interruptions this is why it is essential to stay disciplined. Create a dedicated working space that is free from distractions. Turn off the
TV, keep your workspace tidy and put your phone on silent mode.

Due to the fact that i have other business am into, i don't consider posting on forum as my major sorce of income. I post when am free. I don't follow any special routine or try to discipline myself to achieve some financial goals.

Yes, I figured. You have other businesses you must attend to and posting on the forum is only your side hustle. It is good to earn more money, especially during this difficult time.

During the surge of pandemic my work was done online and it seemed I floated from tiresome activities. I took short naps and did body bending and twisting to energize my body and brain.

The pandemic allowed us to take a break from our usual offline activities. However, I hope we never have to experience another pandemic. It is a very scary thing, to be honest.

Scary to the max and millions perished on our country because of the virus. Many were depressed for unable to adjust their new lives during the pandemic, Many committed suicide.
 
To be honest staying disciplined is not easy in anyway, especially at home. One way I stay disciplined is to find a quite place where I can do my work.
 
I live alone, so only I can distract me, but it's even worse because it's hard to control myself. I often miss online work because I don't feel like it but I have to do it so I set timers to understand that it's like real work but I'm the boss. I also try to dress for work and not sit in front of the computer in a bathrobe
