How Sudoku Ruined My Productivity (and Fixed My Sanity)
I used to think Sudoku was just a neat little pastime for people who like order — numbers, logic, clean grids, and calm thinking. You know, the opposite of my brain.

The Unexpected Peace in the Chaos

Here’s the weird part: even though Sudoku drives me slightly insane, it also keeps me sane.

There’s something soothing about it — the quiet focus, the tiny victories, the way logic slowly replaces panic. In a world that’s loud and messy, Sudoku gives me a sense of control.

Every number fits somewhere. Every problem has an answer. It’s the opposite of real life.

Sometimes, when I’m anxious or overthinking, I open a puzzle, and within minutes, my mind starts to settle. The grid pulls me in, one box at a time, until I forget what I was even stressed about.

 

Who needs meditation when you can just battle a few empty squares?
