Again, do something that you enjoy that isn’t related to work. Once you’ve completed 4 pomodoros you can treat yourself to a longer break. ⏸️ Take a longer break (usually 20-30 minutes) Keep going with the 25 minutes of work, 5 minute break pattern until you get to 4 pomodoros. 🔁 Repeat until you have completed 4 pomodoros (4, 25 minute sessions) Take a few minutes to relax, grab a coffee or do anything else not work related. ⏸️ Take a short break (usually 5 minutes) Once the timer rings, check off ‘1 pomodoro.’ If your mind wanders or a distraction pops up, simply note it down and get back to the task at hand. ⏲️ Work on your task until the timer goes off – record this as 1 pomodoro complete. Promise yourself to focus only on this task during this time. Set yourself up to work, completely uninterrupted for 25 minutes – no more and no less. 🍅 Set the pomodoro timer (usually for 25 minutes) The golden rule is to only choose one task at a time and give it your undivided attention while you work on it. Finding this method extremely effective, Cirillo created the full pomodoro technique with 6 key steps: He aimed to solve his problem by challenging himself to just 10 minutes of focused study time, timing himself with a – you guessed it – tomato shaped kitchen timer. He was struggling with a lack of productivity and procrastination and couldn’t complete his assignments. The pomodoro technique is a time-management method, developed back in the 80s by Italian university student Francesco Cirillo (pomodoro is Italian for tomato).
