    I sometimes find it hard to switch between personal to-do things and client work, and still looking for ways to optimise my routine As a freelancer, I don't have to be present during any particular hours, and I love that flexibility. But it can be counter-productive to do not have any concrete commitments How do you go about it?

    Oh, the eternal struggle of balancing personal tasks and client work while working from home! It's like juggling code without any syntax errors - definitely a challenge worth optimizing for maximum productivity!

    I start my day with a to-do list. Prioritizing my tasks keeps me on track throughout the day.

    Using a whiteboard to list my daily tasks keeps me organized. It’s satisfying to erase tasks as I complete them.

    Set up a work environment without your home that is distinct. It is tempting and easy for people to get too comfortable at home, you can work from your bed, entertain distractions, as long as the job gets done. But then you risk losing productivity and discipline. It takes some effort but it is possible to create a work environment. Maybe its a desk, an ergonomic chair. Try to minimize distractions even when nobody's looking.

    Having a dedicated workspace helps me stay productive when WFH. I block off focused work time on my calendar, use a Pomodoro timer to stay on track, and have a morning routine to transition into work mode. Regular breaks to stretch or grab coffee keep me energized. At the end of the day, I review what I got done and plan for tomorrow to maintain momentum. It's all about creating structure and healthy habits. Hope this gives you some ideas to try out!
