Your desk is a trigger machine. If the vape is in sight, you'll reach for it. So hide it. Put it in a drawer, a bag, or another room. Out of sight doesn't mean out of mind, but it adds a friction step that slows you down.

Set a physical boundary: only vape on the balcony, by the window, or outside the studio. Never at the desk. This creates a space-based rule that's easier to follow than a time-based one. You'll find you vape less because you have to move to do it.

For summer, this matters even more. If you're working from home, the heat can make you lazy—but a hot vape hits harsh and can leak. Keep your disposable in a cool, shaded spot. If it's been in the sun, let it cool down before using. It's a small thing, but it makes the experience better and keeps the device working.

Also, think about your vape's battery life. A low battery can make you puff harder to get a hit, which isn't great. If you're using a model like the VERTEX-25K, you'll have plenty of puffs, but that doesn't mean you should chain them. A charged device hits better, so start your workday with a fresh one if you can.
