Most people in the workplace don't like to feel as though they are working unproductively. Many of us who work in an office setting want to be productive and produce quality work and a great deal of it in time and to demonstrate that we are getting work done and worth the time and energy we are being paid for.
The problem is, that we can just work and work without taking any needed and well-deserved breaks throughout the day, It's a problem because if we just work and work, we can start to get tired and actually work less productively.
Personally, I like to take regular breaks. Even if it's just a short coffee break or a sit down with a cuppa and a good book, I think it's important to take a break. To step aside from the computer and get some downtime.
It's also important to be comfortable too. With the current Covid-19 outbreak wreaking havoc around the world, 2020 has brought many workers out of the office and to their home where they will be working from their home office or kitchen bench.
Funnily enough, working from home presents its own challenges too. Working from home blurs the lines between work and home. Which is why it's even more imperative to set regular breaks and time-out sessions to just stop and sit down on the couch and take a break.
So, to reiterate, it's important to have regular breaks in the office because it can help us concentrate better. Doing so will make you feel more productive and effective.
