The Pomodoro Technique is one of the simplest (yet most effective) productivity systems.

The basic rule is to work on 25-minute increments.

Here’s the step-by-step:

1. Choose one task and one task ONLY

2. Set a timer for 25 minutes. I use this app

3. Work on that task until the timer rings and then put a checkmark on a tracker

4. Take a 5-minute break

5. Repeat 1-4 three more times, followed by a 15-minute break

25 minutes doesn’t sound a lot but that’s 25 minutes of completely uninterrupted work.

I use it every single day, normally 4 cycles in the morning and 4 in the afternoon. My quantity AND quality of work skyrocketed!

You‘ll be amazed at the results ;)
