What's your favourite remote work setting?

@dhruv_bhatia I think in the start-up and remote workers' scene it could see some growth. For people working for larger companies I'm more skeptical considering that larger companies would not really support people going to a co-working space if they have an office somewhere within transport distances pre-corona (I feel, no personal experience in this though), and if they don't reimburse the cost it's an important hurdle...

@dhruv_bhatia Slightly off-topic but as a remote worker I'd love to hear your opinion on our product that just went live :)! We're always looking for improvements :P - https://www.producthunt.com/post... -- Feel free to ping me on twitter, would love to have a chat!

@luke_v Nice! How do you manage to separate work from your personal life?

@nova_n interesting. I find it hard to separate work from personal life at home...Any tips for achieving this?

@dhruv_bhatia have a routine :)

@sreerag_menon Ah, that would be ideal :)

@fffabs exactly what I've been feeling ;)

@markg For reals? With alcohol or without?

@gabriele_jusaityte What strategies have worked for you? I find it very hard to separate work from personal life at home...

@dhruv_bhatia Well...I tried to distribute tasks into timeframes (didn't work - estimates usually were off), then I tried to-do lists which I would need to follow chronologically (I will have lunch only after I finish 'x') and this worked probably the longest, but some things that are out of your control can easily change your plans, and I'm then you are back to square one 😅 Now I'm trying to 'book' time for work - for instance from 12pm to 5pm I'm in 'do not disturb' mode and anything that comes my way during this time should be ignored. All of this is some sort of mind game, but without it I'm usually all over the place 😅 As with personal life - it is great to have some rules as well, especially when you're a founder/maker/etc, as it usually feels that if you're having some time off, you're not working hard enough. Though I believe that the opposite is true - when you're rested, had spent quality time with friends/family and yourself, you can be more creative, motivated and in the end of the day - more happy. So, I also try to intentionally 'book' time for everything else, but work 👌

@dhruv_bhatia haha, it sort of is! 😅 What about you? You mentioned that you find it hard to achieve work-life balance, have you experimented with rules/strategies/etc?

@gabriele_jusaityte I try to follow processes without focusing on goals and believe in habit stacking. For example, if I don't feel like doing work, I force myself to do just one more task and then I feel great about myself 😅. I basically follow James Clear's Atomic Habits

@dhruv_bhatia That sounds rewarding! 😅 I assume you liked the book! I ordered it just this week (very late to the hype), but now my expectations are very high 😅

@vladojsem interesting point...I guess depending on the nature of your work, home might be a better option than working from a coffee shop.

@zacpross haha, really? I feel that I make much better coffee at home, but I really like (and miss) the vibe of a coffee shop

@alsoknownasdrew same!

@fabian_maume looks like you have your priorities right :)

@bikashkampo sounds very comfy :)

@dhruv_bhatia5 @samliebeskind haha whatever works :)

@vinayp10 same here :)
