Find ways to make productive use of the small bits of time we all have, but most of us waste. With a bit of creativity you can find ways to use a ten minute break in the action to your advantage … even if it’s nothing more than closing your door and giving some complex matter more thought than you’ve been able to up until now.

Don’t, however, try to fit twenty minutes of effort into a ten-minute gap just because you have it. All that will do is reduce the time you have for the next item on your agenda, which will make you more rushed rather than less.

Which is, after all, the point of the exercise.
