Default Bouncing Around

I would like to know if I'm the only one who like to go from project to project as a means to keep my head clear. If I am working on a particularly difficult piecing I stop after two or three hours and go to another project, usually an easier one, and then return to the major work. It helps me to see the project more clearly and if I was bored cutting a gazillion pieces it doesn't seem as daunting. Does this seem like a good idea? Example: I am doing a star block with "Y" seams, so after mentally screaming I stopped and made a set of coasters for my BIL. I returned to the "Y" seams and they didn't seem so difficult. The reason I ask is because I wonder if I'm losing my concentration needed to do the piecing correctly by leaving it mid project. This is not a burning issue, but I'd be interested in your perspective.
