Tip #8: When you sleep. Get a good night's rest. If possible, keep a regular work and sleep schedule.
Tip #9: When scheduling out your day, and workload. Make a scheduled block for IM's, e-mail, phone calls, etc. Nothing will ruin your groove like getting caught up on a 30-60 minute phone call. If you are running ahead of schedule, then fine. Otherwise, stick to gameplan.
Tip #10: Make sure you take your breaks, and lunches. If possible. Leave your office (home or otherwise) for lunch, and get away from the computer. Then you will be more refreshed.
Tip #11: Plan out your morning, day, week, month on what you want to accomplish. Make it realistic on what you can do in 8/10/12/18 hours. If you are running ahead, reward yourself, get out, take time for yourself. Do not push on to the next day's tasks. Doing this will burn you out in no time.
