The Coffee Break Rule: Why Short Breaks Boost Focus

Attention is not a tank you fill once in the morning. After an hour or so of focused work, most of us start to drift. A short, planned break, long enough for a coffee and a walk to the window, resets attention so the next block of work goes further.
A simple break schedule
- Work in 50-minute blocks, then step away for 10.
- Take one longer break before lunch, not after it.
- Keep the coffee, skip the inbox.
