In episode 8, titled Becoming a Boundary Queen, we discussed how interruptions to our work day can wreak havoc, and that it's up to us to set healthy boundaries. In today's episode titled How To Improve Performance with Strategic Breaks we are discussing the breaks you take on your terms to improve outcomes and to become more creative. There's a difference between these type of strategic breaks and interruptions. When you're working in a flow state on a task or project, and your ideas are flowing freely, you feel great! You keep working through and as you keep chipping away, you then suddenly find that you're not feeling great. You've hit a wall, a roadblock, and your thinking is no longer laser focused. Productivity has dropped. You can't focus, and you begin to feel irritable. We all know what that feels like, to be stuck on a problem. We ruminate as it goes round and round our head, increasing frustration and obliterating enthusiasm. So, you try to push through. You put the kettle on, so sure and confident, and with fingers crossed while you make a wish, that when you return to the task, you'll be able to smash your way through. Sometimes that works, but oh no, not on this occasion. This is when we need a different sort of break, and I'll be sharing with you great tips and tricks for working in the zone.
