Man, I have a draft for an article about this exact same subject. A while back, I gave myself Wednesdays permission to do nothing, and I don't always take myself up on it. But when I do, I'm always so much more productive on Thursday and Friday.

THIS. ^^ Taking breaks is especially useful for creativity, too, b/c it gives your brain space to subconsciously make connections in your mind.

Totally. It’s really about listening to yourself every day, in each moment. We are constantly pushing ourselves to be better, and that can become stressful when you're not in the right condition to do so.
