Description
You might have noticed that sometimes when the afternoon rolls around you become less productive. From roughly 1pm to 4pm, to be more precise.
During that time, you're not as motivated to do the work, you have a harder time focusing, and even the work that you do, is of lower quality.
A lot of people around the globe experience this exact phenomenon every single day.
And it has a name: the afternoon slump.
