How to Use the Pomodoro Timer
- Choose ONE task - Write it down. Commit to focusing on just this one thing.
- Set the timer - Default is 25 minutes (the classic Pomodoro duration), but adjust if needed.
- Work until the bell rings - No phone, no email, no interruptions. Just your task.
- Take a 5-minute break - Stand up, stretch, hydrate. Give your brain a rest.
- Repeat - After 4 focus sessions, reward yourself with a longer 15-minute break.
Focus Tips for Maximum Productivity
1. Eliminate distractions
Turn off notifications, close unnecessary tabs, and let others know you're in focus mode. Your environment shapes your ability to concentrate.
2. Use background sound
Lo-fi music, white noise, or nature sounds can help maintain focus. Experiment to find what works best for you.
3. Start with shorter sessions
If 25 minutes feels overwhelming, try 15-minute intervals. Build your focus stamina gradually over time.
4. Move during breaks
Physical activity during breaks boosts energy and cognition. Even a short walk or stretch makes a difference.
