"In Sweden we enjoy fika, taking a coffee break with friends. It's been a part of our culture since the 1700s. In many companies, people take fika breaks around 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.; they head to a café for lattes, tea, or smoothies with a cinnamon roll, muffin, or macaron. Fika has something very friendly and peaceful about it." —Sarah Melin, 42, manager at a TV production company; Stockholm
“在瑞典我们喜欢和朋友一起和杯咖啡休息一下。这从18世纪开始就是我们文化的一部分。在许多公司，人们在上午10点和下午3点左右会喝咖啡休息。他们去咖啡店喝拿铁、茶，或者冰沙，配上肉桂卷、小松饼或马卡龙，这种放松方式气氛友好而且平静。”——Sarah Melin, 42岁，斯德哥尔摩，在一家电视制作公司任经理。
What you can do: Program a break reminder into your smartphone, heed the beeps, and grab a friend for coffee in the office kitchen. Don't feel guilty for slacking off; in a Massachusetts Institute of Technology study, people who got up to socialize during the work day ended up being 10 to 15 percent more productive than those who didn't.
你可以做的是：在你的智能手机上设置一个休息提醒，注意提醒铃声，然后拉上一个朋友去办公室茶水间喝喝咖啡。不要为放松感到内疚，一项麻省理工学院的研究表明，那些在工作期间进行社交活动放松的人，比没有这样做的人工作效率高10%-15%。
