Take 10...x3

Did you know it helps sometimes to turn your brain off?

WHAAAAAAAT? 🤯

Ever been in a situation where you're beating your head against a wall learning something new and it just isn't clicking? Where the longer you do it the more frustrated or the more complacent you get?

Our brains aren't made to have laser-focus attention spans all of the time. There needs to be some variety in what you're looking at even from a young age! Babies will give sleep cues when really they are just bored and need a different stimulus!

So, how do we do this most effectively?

Well, research has shown that practicing something 3 times with breaks in between each practice is an effective way to learn. I'm not talking about a fleeting break either! 10 minutes seems to be the optimal break time. So, you would practice, take 10, practice, take 10, practice, and take 10.

What is this doing? It is actually causing your brain to create stronger connections! So, let's work smarter and not harder when it comes to learning new skills and making the most of our time.
