Working longer hours might seem to be key, but actually, studies have shown we need the right mix of relaxation and work in order to be the most productive. A novel idea to increase productivity is to challenge our brain by learning a musical instrument. Such an an endeavor requires persistence and practice, two things good to work on for any business success. There is also stimulation to our brain’s abilities when we learn to play.
