I've found having a third space is useful. You have your home and your office, find a third that you can fit easily into your daily routine, and spend 1-2 hours there when you can. My train home goes past a library that's open late, so a couple of times a week I'll go there after work with a laptop.

I'll second this. Find a place that is close or convenient. Of course if you're the kind of person that is waiting for the next distraction to avoid stuff, then no solution will work. If you're motivated by what you're doing there's nothing that can stop you from having fun building it.

Seconded. I'm using a coworking space (there are some in every country), the one I'm in has an "after office" special plan :) and is pretty cool:

The bonus is you get to meet other smart and motivated people too.

I'm trying to build my side project after a 48 hour workweek, and to be honest it's a bit of a struggle.

My plan is to do customer validation first, and if it works, get a small amount of seed investment and go for it.

I've felt this need for a third place very strongly lately. My office is in my house, and I work from home, but I'm such a homebody that I'm thinking about converting my garage into an electronics workshop and darkroom.
