When I worked in a physical office, I was never the type of person to show up excessively early. Living in a relatively small town had the benefit of my commute not wildly varying, which aided in the complex backward math I’d do in my head to let me know exactly how much time I needed to allocate to get to work. A two-minute walk across the parking lot, plus an eleven-minute drive, plus three minutes to toast a bagel… you get the idea. I didn’t realize it at the time, but I had established a routine that let me know that it was time to transition from my home life to work, which allowed me to mentally prepare for the day ahead. It’s important to keep a morning routine, however abbreviated, intact. Whatever your routine was in the before-times, try to mimic it as much as possible. Did you wake up in time for a five-minute shower while your coffee brewed in the other room? Keep it up while you WFH – it’ll make the inevitable return that much easier and put you in the right headspace while you work from your home space.
