How to get out of looping option 3 over and over?
I've started the 40-20 rule which has helped me a bunch. I've always heard that taking breaks help you learn or get done better but I'd never heard actual numbers put to it. Now I have 2 timers I cycle between, 40 mins of work or dtudy, 20 min break, adjust as needed (40-20 is the default, some people do better on a slightly different ratio, just takes a bit of trial)
I miss getting 40 hours of work done in 3 hours regularly, but it catches up eventually until you loop option 3 endlessly. Just enjoy it.
