First of all, I LOVE working from home (WFH)!! It has created a full work/life balance for me, and has changed the way that I utilize my mornings.
Unpopular opinion: I like the mornings. (This is new, we will see how long it lasts haha!) Due to being in the summer months, the sun comes up just a little earlier, and I tend to wake up with it. I have come to enjoy going for a short walk when I wake up, while I drink a bottle of water and listen to a podcast. When I get home, I pour myself coffee (no s**t!), sit at my computer, look over some emails, create a to-do list, and then hop in the shower….all before 6:30 AM!! (I start work at 7:00 AM still, and I love it.)
This little change in my routine and working from home in general, has helped me be “more productive and effective during my work day” (my manager’s words), and has helped create time for myself in the process.
