Your "Afternoon Slump" Will Start at 3:00 P.M. and Last 29 Minutes
Do you regularly hit an "afternoon slump" at work, where you suddenly feel drained or unmotivated? One in five Americans in a new poll said yes. And here's when it's most likely to happen . . .
The average person hits a wall at 3:00 P.M., and their slump lasts a total of 29 minutes. According to the survey, here are the top five things that can cause it.
1. The caffeine wore off.
2. General boredom.
3. A lack of energy.
4. You need to eat.
5. You're underslept.
Sitting in one place for too long and not taking breaks also made the Top 10. A lot of people said they tend to have more of those moments in winter too.
The top things we do to break out of a slump include going for a walk . . . grabbing something to eat . . . and if you can get away with it, taking a nap.
