Set A Timer

I understand that you may not be able to implement today’s challenge into your work or school life, but wherever applicable, I wish for you to try following your impulses to take a break. As you go about your daily activities, whenever you begin to notice yourself becoming distracted, unfocused, bored, overwhelmed, or burnt out by the task at hand, […]
