Pomodoro technique.pptx
The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method developed in the late 1980s by Francesco Cirillo to help improve focus and productivity. It works by breaking down work into intervals ("pomodoros"), typically 25 minutes in length, separated by short breaks. After 4 pomodoros, a longer break is taken. This structure helps limit distraction and prevents mental fatigue. Popular apps like Focus Booster and Pomodoro Tracker can help users implement the technique by tracking intervals and generating reports on time spent.

Editor's Notes
- #4 The Pomodoro Technique was developed in the late 1980s by then university student Francesco Cirillo. Cirillo was struggling to focus on his studies and complete assignments. Feeling overwhelmed, he asked himself to commit to just 10 minutes of focused study time. Encouraged by the challenge, he found a tomato (pomodoro in Italian) shaped kitchen timer, and the Pomodoro technique was born. Alternate pomodoros — focused work sessions — with frequent short breaks to promote sustained concentration and stave off mental fatigue.
- #5 What Is the Pomodoro Technique? · You budget your time into short increments for every project throughout the day and take breaks periodically Pomodoro method asks you to alternate pomodoros — focused work sessions — with frequent short breaks to promote sustained concentration and stave off mental fatigue.
- #6 Take 15 minutes at the beginning of your workday (or at the end if you're planning for the next day), to plan out your pomodoros. Take your to-do list for the day and note how many pomodoros each task will take. If you work an 8-hour workday, make sure your pomodoros for the day don't go over sixteen. If they do, postpone the least urgent/least important tasks for later in the week. For tasks that you've been putting off for one reason or another, 25 minutes might be too long. If you're feeling a lot of mental resistance, or you just can't get yourself to stay focused for 25 minutes, try a 15-, 10-, or even 5-minute pomodoro. Get a to-do list and a timer. When your session ends, mark off one pomodoro and record what you completed. Then enjoy a five-minute break. After four pomodoros, take a longer, more restorative 15-30 minute break. The rule applies even if you do finish your given task before the timer goes off. Use the rest of your time for overlearning, or improving skills or scope of knowledge. For example, you could spend the extra time reading up on professional journals or researching networking opportunities.
- #7 The main reason why Pomodoro works is because of the frequent breaks, which are proven to keep the mind focused and fresh. Picking up the Pomodoro Technique is fairly easy and the official website of the Pomodoro Technique claims you will be able to see the results in just a day or two. According to them, mastering time with the help of the Pomodoro Technique will take seven to twenty days.
