A Break Can Make All The Difference

No matter how pressing or time sensitive a task is, there are times when stepping away for a short while is necessary. It's like finding space to breathe, letting all the tension fall away for a few minutes, and clearing away the congestion of thoughts. I rarely use to listen to myself, pushing until I couldn't focus, and I'd fall further behind than if I had just taken that half hour break from everything I was doing. I listened today, and I came back more productive than I ever would have been if I had ignored that need for a little break.
