Thinking about it, what is the secret to succeeding professionally? How do dreams come true? Can you reach being relaxed?
The methods are different, there are thousands, but the constant work with subtle breaks seem to be the perfect formula to be productive and not die to try.

It is that not everything in life is work, a nap, a simple walk and even play a sport are the essential ingredients to make the best of one at a time to realize our dreams.
At least, that’s what they did, for example, Beethoven, Ingmar Bergman and Franz Kafka to connect with their creative potential.
Of course, times have changed. But there is evidence that works stress and fatigue do not serve the time to be efficient and to achieve the ambitious goals that one sets when you are convinced that you have talent, skills, and confidence that our work will contribute.
However, there is widespread prejudice think that a person who strives or “suffering” is working. Conversely, when someone does not suffer from stress, it is calm and happy is said to be weak, which is not interested in working or not committed.
