Honestly, the distractions around the house are my biggest nightmare while working from home. Even though I am a remote worker, I try to go out and work in coffee shops, and libraries as much as possible so that I am much more disciplined. What about you?
I'll be checking out the comments to see how people are dealing with this. The distractions are real, but I feel that sometimes I'll be the most productive when I sit for a few hours straight early in the morning and deal with the work I do!
Rest of the day I'd just focus on getting small tasks done.
@sanjay_somashekar When you say "early", are you talking about early-early- like 5 am?

I usually try to create a work environment that is free of distractions. That means setting up my desk in an area with minimal noise and clutter, and avoiding having the television or any other potential sources of distraction nearby.
I like to set aside specific blocks of time for breaks so I can step away from work and refocus on what needs to be done.
Taking frequent breaks helps me stay focused throughout the day.
Here's how I deal with it:
1. I've established a specific workspace and room
2. Communicate a lot with my family
3. Set time for work and family
4. Celebrate wins as a family
Yes very similar situation. I get very easily distracted at home and even take frequent naps. What helps is setting up a dedicated office space if you have that option. Makes a big difference.
