This should not be a problem for you.

Work for 20 minutes then take a five-minute break. You are working only 45-minute hours. That is plenty of time to focus and plenty of time to refresh.

When you take your break, don’t stay sitting at your desk. Run downstairs and get a drink of water. Make a quick phone call. Tease your brother. Anything, just get your mind off the work. You will feel much better.

Use a stopwatch. No cheating! Do not take more than five minutes.

Working on your environment is the focus of our next article.
