How I Write Clips(@PerellClips):The 4 elements of an effective break according to Daniel Pink: 1) Motion beats sitting. A walk restores you more than a chair. 2) Outside beats inside. 3) Breaks with people beat breaks alone, even for introverts. 4) Staring at your phone on your walk is not a break. Detach completely. "They're part of our performance, not a deviation from the performance." @DanielPink
