Similarly, it’s good to prioritize important or hard tasks, since it’s easier to stay focused if you have interesting or meaningful tasks to work on.  Also, if you do need to work on a boring or mundane task, it’s good to keep it short and to take frequent breaks, since doing a lot of detail work in a long session usually causes the task
