Use the Pomodoro technique
You can use the Pomodoro technique to work in 25 minutes sprints.
Here’s how it works:
- Decide on the task to be done.
- Set the Pomodoro timer to 25 minutes.
- Work on the task.
- Stop work when the timer rings and put a tick on a piece of paper.
- If you have fewer than four ticks, take a short break of 3–5 minutes, then go to step 2.
- When you have four ticks, take a longer break of 15–30 minutes, reset your tick count to zero, then go to step 1.
