Appreciation post: Adding quick walks fixed my post-lunch slump

I thought skipping breaks meant more work got done. Seeing a teammate's energy after their walk changed my mind for good.

Remember when my friend swore short walks cured her 3pm crash?

Sure, for a minute. What happens is you just swap one kind of tired for another. The walk gives you a small boost, but then you crash harder later. I tried it and ended up just wasting ten minutes outside. Now I keep a candy bar in my desk and call it a solution.
