You may have heard this countless times before, that you should take a break at regular intervals to be more productive.

Medical research has proved it beyond doubt that the attention span of an average person does not exceed an hour and a half at a stretch.

Not taking break between jobs is a mistake and I have done it several times and I suffered a lot. I feel so overwhelmed at times, frustrated, irritated, fickle-minded. The last time I took break when I was down with food poisoning and when I returned back I was more energetic. I should focus on myself a little more but I don't. When you have responsibilities on your head taking breaks looks like a luxury and not everyone can afford that.
Oh yess... I used to feel guilty for those small walks while I was supposed to read for exams as a kids. But, I now know that gave me strength and focus for studying.. Happy.. I got good grades.
