If you follow these simple lifestyle rules you'll probably get 5 times more productive work done in a day!

Couple things that make a positive difference:

Nutrition - make sure you are nourishing your body with either good food and/or vitamin supplements. If you work long hours or under duress, B complex vitamins are very helpful. Don't take vitamins on an empty stomach.

Exercise - even simple regular walks will boost you energy levels.

Rest - Sleep when you are tired. Do not try to sleep when you are not tired. If you can't sleep, go do something.

Breath! - Oxygen is what fuels our brains and learning to breath properly can make a huge difference to your overall sense of well-being. Don't crap up your lungs with smoke.

4 hours of deep sleep can totally recharge your system.

Unfortunately, our 9-5 M-F grinds totally conflict with our natural cycles - one of the reasons I have broken away from that loop and work according to my own needs/cycles.
