That is part of the reason I deliberately take a five or ten minute break from development pretty much every hour. Doing something unrelated to the task at hand helps to focus me on the essentials of the task, rather than the details of the problem I was trying to solve. I often find that when I pick it up again, I have a clearer view of what I am trying to do, and can work a lot more effectively.

I know it sounds odd, but not doing my job all the time makes me better, and more efficient at doing my job! Laugh | :laugh:
