How Do You Close the Door When You Work at Home?

C.T. asks in the Small Business Canada Forum:

"Homebased business provide great flexibility and low ovehead. However, do you have trouble closing the door and going home? What are some of the strategies used by homebased business owners?"

I know this was something I struggled with for years. After all, working on your business is so much more interesting than a lot of household chores!

One of my main techniques for dealing with the problem of having a homebased business was/is set scheduling. Even though I could work practically any time, I don't. Instead, like people who go out to work, I work set hours and stick to the schedule as much as possible.

What do the rest of you do?
