A simple equation for productivity and health
To be more focused and productive, remember this simple equation. It comes from productivity coach, Carson Tate: 50 plus 10.
In other words, for every 50 minutes you spend doing a mentally-challenging task - take a 10-minute break to do something mindless, like checking Facebook or playing a game on your phone. Taking a break about every hour will help re-set your brain so you don’t overload your neural circuits, and will help you focus for the NEXT 50 minutes of mentally-challenging activities.
