What habits, routines, or rules help you maintain a healthy balance while working from home? Do you have a dedicated workspace? Set firm boundaries on work hours? Avoid personal tasks during the day?

I’ve been struggling with boundaries lately. Some days, I blend personal and work activities throughout the day, and instead of creating flexibility, it can make me feel like I’m always working. The lines between work time and personal time start to blur.

My computer is in a corner and I open it at 7 am and close it 430-5pm if it's closed I'm not working. I don't look at it. I don't think about it.

I take a run every morning so I try to make up that time later. But honestly, I'm less inclined to work extra hours when my bosses are being over bearing. Totally kills my motivation.

Has anyone ever asked to renegotiate their salary after starting a job? I’m 2 months into my new job and I have far more responsibilities than what I was told. It’s a lot different than what was relayed in the posting and during the interviews. Additionally, they hired my counter part in as a senior manager which is at least $30k more than what I make. My peer has more experience so I expect that but I feel that I should be paid more, however I don’t want to leave a bad impression… any advice?
