Shower. Shave (unless in Grizzly Adams mode). Put on clothes that you would be willing to wear outside the house. Eat breakfast. Go to work.
I personally find that the ritual helps to put my mind in "work" mode.

Like I said in my other reply, treat your home office as you would any typical corporate office. Take a shower, put own fresh clothing, etc.
1. Anywhere in my house, depending on which
location feels right at any given time.
2. Restaurants, coffee shops
3. Hotels
4. From moving cars (while not driving, obviously)
5. From tractors way out in the middle of a field
6. In friend's living/dining rooms
7. Decks, porches, patios, picknick tables
8. You name it, I have probably tried it
As I mentioned in my other post, working at the times you are mentally fit for the job is far more important than any other factor. The only thing that leads me to distraction is burnout. I find that if I work when I am fresh, there is no temptation to do anything else.1. employee that works in the traditional office 2. employee/freelancer that works in the home-office 3. employee/freelancer that works in the cloud.
These are the distinctions that define the modern workforce. Whichever category you fall into, I believe that you still have to have a home-office of some sort - may that be a dedicated room, a corner, or just a desk in the living room.
Really, wrong?
Certainly, give it a go if your routine now is less enterprisey, and vice versa.
