I have a daily commute time of 1h each direction but I travel by train. I've been doing this for 2 years now and intent to keep it this way because I find it a lot easier to focus on reading than when I am at home. When I don't feel like reading I listen to podcasts or reflect my work.

[hosh]

Fair enough. My point is being more mindful and deliberate about things, and not taking the default of "I have to come into work." You don't have to. I'm certainly not suggesting that you have to work remotely, either.
