Narcoleptic nerd dabbling in anything and everything when I can stay awake and out of bed. 90 year-old in a 35 year-old body, but I keep on keepin' on!

A few degrees in Tech, Japanese, and International Studies
As someone with narcolepsy, I completely agree.
I will say though that some people just work better at night. I personally do my best work then, as I enjoy the night and the quiet that comes with it. Even so, it's still important to set a concrete time to just walk away, and continue the next day.
Breaks in general while working are just as crucial. The pomodoro 25min working / 5min break, is a good baseline. Can't stress how many times I've been frustrated troubleshooting something, going outside and walking for 15min, then coming back and solving the issue I was having.
I have always been a night person too but it is now that I have felt, it is just a matter of changing our mindset.
And yes, breaks rejuvenate our mind. A calm walk or a shower brings the best solution often.
