Remote working and what it takes
I loved the point on boundaries as well AnnaChu. 🙂
They can even be important on the flip side of that coin. With the "office" just a few feet away from the "family room", when I'm not working, it can be all too easy to say, "I'm just going to do like 10 minutes worth of work....."
...You will then find the family staring at you or beginning to feel like you are never "off work".
Being disciplined with ourselves to ensure we are "off work" can be a hard balance to find, but one that is equally important. 
DavidWarner I find that challenging as well, but it was one of the first challenges I really worked to overcome, and where my wife really supported me. When I´m working, regardless from where, I´m at work. I dont do anything with the household at all, a part from during lunch breaks if needed. That means that I have more time, and that I also CANT put the blame on "private stuff" when I struggle with deadlines. That makes more more focused in general.
When my daughter is at home, she is three, its more challenging since she of course wants to spend time with me, or at least look at me when working. However, we can usually come to some to some agreement 😛
