A study conducted by Hiroshima University found that a few minutes of YouTube can help spike productivity and allow you to focus better, making a little bit of joy -- and a little bit of work -- truly just a click away.

Still not convinced you're a few moments away from turning around your grumpy demeanor? We dare you not to smile after you go through the chart below.
