I find that the more often my mind is in a certain context, the shorter it takes to switch to that state.

For example, when I work on a programming project every single day, then every time I sit down to work on it, it takes a mere 5 minutes to remember where I was previously. But if I come back to it after, say, a week, it can take up to 20 minutes.

This isn't based on any kind of science whatsoever though. Just an observation I made about myself.
