Considering the onslaught of distractions we all face at work, that’s a superpower. This technique can help anyone who feels distracted or overwhelmed to focus on what matters. Don’t avoid tracking Pomodoro sessions either as what gets measured gets managed. Ingredients 1 celery stalk 1 medium-sized tomato 1medium-sized carrot 2-3 garlic cloves 1 cup of vegetable stock 1 tsp of freshly ground pepper 1 tsp of oil Salt to taste View this post on Instagram A post shared by Anjali Mukerjee (anjalimukerjee) Method Chop celery, tomato, carrot, and garlic fine. One or two Pomodoro sessions a day sets a tone whereby you feel more focused and productive, even if you’re not up against a self-imposed timer.Īdapting to short bursts or sprints of work takes practice. You don’t need to stack four Pomodoro sessions on top of each other like the technique prescribes, although it helps.
Remember, the goal is to cultivate blocks of focused work. If 25 minutes feels too long, try 15 or a random amount of time like 18 minutes. Some advocates aim for 60-minute blocks of focused work. I increased my Pomodoro sessions to 30 minutes, as I prefer a round number. All you need is a timer, pen, and notepad for tracking sessions. That said, fancy apps and equipment are an extra step. Sometimes, I wear noise-canceling headphones and listen to ambient music on repeat during a session. I also use the apps Freedom and RescueTime to disable my internet access and track my blocks of focused work. As I have a Mac, I use the app Be Focused Pro. Sometimes, I go hardcore and disable my internet access during a Pomodoro session.
