The 11th Reason
You do not want to, or know how to, "go beyond."
I have been a remote worker for several companies since 1995, sometimes a few times a week, sometimes (like now) 100% of the time. Your tips are excellent, but one more I would add: if you want to continue to thrive in your home office, do more than you are asked, proffer ideas and solutions, not just for your role, but for other areas of the company.
This means you have to be in touch with not just your manager and "co-workers" but your industry, your business, other departments, etc. When you "go beyond" you create lasting and renewable value for the company that is specifically associated with you, the person they might not see every day. In that respect, #11 draws on #4, but it is more than communication and brainstorming. Offering ideas and solutions where they are not asked for takes acumen, good timing, and humility, so your ideas are not seen as invasive, but will build your reputation as a person of value.
