Time management if you have a raiding schedule (and find a guild that fits your RL schedule, don't try to force it).
Forget about alts, only focus on one toon.
And my secret trick: If you get in that "I really want to just play" state of mind, do it, like play the entire weekend. You'll scratch that itch, almost get tired of the game and realize you wasted a lot of time. Then you'll play casually because you had a taste of the no life style. If you don't do that you'll always try to play everytime you can in little sessions, it will stay stuck in the back of your mind but you'll never actually play enough to satisfy that urge.
Well, that works for me but it's probably not for everyone.
