Very interesting. In step 4, after you have accomplished your goal what can I do that completely resets/reboots my brain? If I have been coding for 60 minutes, and I choose to spend the next 20 minutes as my break is there a recommended activity that completely rejuvenates? I am open to listening to music, exercise, watching videos, a snack etc. However, I rarely feel refreshed at the end of this break and dread going back to work again. Appreciate your thoughts on this.

Actually, it doesn't really matter that much for me. I mean each time I do something else. Maybe something around the house or the office, talk to someone, do some physical job (like scan/print documents) or pay the bills, do your ebay/amazon shopping... It doesn't even have to be a typical "rest" each time. Anything that is just not The Big Thing - not writing code in my case.
