Great points! I'm lucky that I can't take my work home with me, but substitute it with learning instead, which doesn't help either. More breaks and more "me time" is a good idea!
"Getting in the zone" ... hmm - it really feels great when we finally break away from the barricades into that stream/current of thrilling code seessions. Thanks so much for the tips Scott. They're great.
Simple but helpful points, Scott.
I for one am guilty of spending long hours in front of the screen, trying to 'get things done'. Whereas taking a break here and there would result in more productivity, and reduced strain on my body.

This is definitely a great article, short and right to the point. I love being in the zone, but sometimes it's hard to get there.
