Having trouble focusing on important tasks

The Pomodoro Technique might be a good experiment to try.

How does it work?

  1. Choose a task.
  2. Set a timer, usually for 25 minutes.
  3. Work on the task until the time is up.
  4. Take a break, usually 5 minutes.
  5. Every four cycles take a longer break.

Please remember:

  • You do not have to finish the task during the set time, just focus on it and progress.
  • This is a tool, you can (and should) adjust it in a way that works best for your work style and the tasks you need to complete.

Try this for a week, then write down what worked and what didn’t, adjust and try again!
