clock on a wallAlmost everyone I know has too much to do. We are all feeling stressed and overloaded. It’s just part of life today.

There’s one thing you can do to be more productive in the time you must spend on getting all your work, school and general responsibilities done: Take a break.

The best breaks are a full day long. Leave your normal environment. Do something totally different than what you normally do. Be physical – if you stretch your body, that will help your mind too.

If you can’t take a whole day, take two evenings off. But just get a rest.
