#3: Schedule breaks throughout the day. This may sound counterproductive at first, but you definitely need to schedule breaks. Your brain needs to reset itself. What does a break mean during the workday? You might get up, stretch, get a cup of coffee or a glass of water in the breakroom, and have a conversation with a colleague. Or, you might walk outside and take a few deep breaths of fresh air. These short breaks from work help our minds to reset and not get bogged down. Not many people have the attention span and ability to work straight through for eight hours. Breaks in the day allow us to refocus on a task and be actually more productive than we would be if we just honey-badgered through the whole day.
