You now have an excuse to take a 15 minute break at your desk while you “daww” & “aww” over cute baby animals. A study out of Hiroshima University in Japan suggests that if a person is looking at pictures of cute baby animals, they will take more time and care on a project or task afterwords thus increasing performance of tasks by an adorable 10%.

It’s believed that when you look at the cute picture, you trigger emotions that are associated with motivation through joy or pleasure.

Apparently, viewing images of yummy foods didn’t have the same effect.

But since you’re here, check out these images of cute baby animals from all over the web. Consider this a recharge.
