With the title of this article I was ready to roll my eyes at some cheeky advice, but I was surprised that I have found this to be spot on. When your work requires any level of creativity pushing through it can often take triple or quadruple as long to finish it. Taking a walk or making dinner is often the best/fastest solution- hell most of my ideas hit me while cooking or jogging anyway. When I push through, that is when I do boring work that I throw away anyway.
