The Pomodoro technique is a popular time management life hack. The technique allows you to work in sprints (called Pomodoro sessions) and maintain regular breaks. This has been proven to keep your mind fresh and fast helping to maintain focus and effectively manage distractions.
If you feel there is not enough time in the day, you have too many distractions and you are always struggling to finish anything this is something that has proven to work in resolving all these problems and more.
The Pomodoro Principles
- Work with time, not against it
- Eliminate burnout
- Manage distractions
- Create a better work/life balance.
All you need is a good timer - here is how it works.
- Choose a task that you want to focus on
- Just one task at a time
- Remove all distractions
- Set your timer to 25 min
- Work on your task until the timer rings.
- Take a 5 min. break – you have just finished your first Pomodoro!
Repeat steps 1-6 three more times, followed by a 20 min break
It’s not as easy as it sounds, that’s 25 minutes of steady, focused work on ONE TASK.
- NO Multitasking
- NO emails
- NO phone calls
- NO checking Facebook, Twitter, Instagram
- NOTHING!
NO DISTRACTIONS ALLOWED
