Tip 5: Take appropriate breaks. To keep your mind strong and maintain an appropriate workflow, make sure to take frequent and regular breaks. Work in spurts of 15 – 45 minutes and then take a 5 minute break for any needed bathroom breaks, phone calls, or quick snacks. Stepping away from the computer on a regular basis helps prevent repetitive stress injuries like carpal tunnel, backaches, and eyestrain, and increases the blood flow to the brain for improved creativity.
