Ideally, we’d all like to get through our days with laser-sharp focus. While this can certainly get things done a lot faster, letting yourself zone out every now and then isn’t always hindering your productivity.Obviously, unless you pilot a plane or operate heavy machinery for a living, allowing your mind to wander from time to time boosts creativity and can help you stumble upon a solution you wouldn’t otherwise have thought of. It also gives your mind a break, allowing it to regroup so you can actually focus better afterwards.
