Everybody wants "work from home" because it sounds comfortable. Pajamas. Flexibility. No commute. Cool story. For most people, it is a productivity death sentence.

In this episode, I break down why working from home should be about efficiency, not comfort. Why your "morning routine" can quietly cost you weeks of output every year. And why the truth is simple: 99.9% of people can't do it, because they do not have the discipline, the boundaries, or the family buy-in to protect their focus.

We talk about setting hard guardrails with your spouse and kids, building a home setup that eliminates distractions, and why in our companies we stopped allowing remote work, because the data did not lie. We also get into the uncomfortable part: there is no work-life balance if you want to lead at a high level. You either accept that, or you keep pretending and wonder why you are stuck.

This isn't parenting advice. This isn't marriage coaching. This is just what's worked for me so far, what's failed, and what you need to hear before you keep lying to yourself about being "productive at home."
