[TallGuyShort]

I'm remote and have been prone to workaholism in the past. Here are my techniques:

- I do track my progress on key long term objectives. If I'm getting behind I need to know, and burn the candle at both ends until I catch up. This should be rare.

- I try to set a daily goal or two of stuff to get done to make sure I stay focused on something productive and don't get distracted with yak-shaving or non-work.

- I stop hourly-ish and assess what I've achieved in the last hour. Sometimes I'm just not getting anything done and I'm better off calling it a day to get some real rest and diversion.
