When you taught them how to follow through with their chores, you should have built an incentive system for your children. It doesn't sound like something that works for grown-ups, but it's a significant motivator.

You don't have to create a sticker map (unless you want to). Instead, you should do something every 2 hours you work, take a 15-minute break, and relax. After your workday, you can also watch a video. You want to choose incentives that help hold your mind at work and not float out into space.
