What is the Pomodoro Technique and how does it work?

The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s. It involves using a timer to break work into intervals, called 'pomodoros,' separated by short breaks. The name 'Pomodoro' comes from the Italian word for 'tomato,' referring to the tomato-shaped kitchen timer that Cirillo used when he was a student.
The Pomodoro Technique consists of several steps:
  • 1. Choose a task to work on.
  • 2. Set the timer for 25 minutes (the length of one pomodoro).
  • 3. Work on the task until the timer goes off.
  • 4. Take a short break of 5 minutes.
  • 5. After four pomodoros, take a longer break of 15 to 30 minutes.

Using the Pomodoro Technique for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) or Procrastination.

The Pomodoro Technique is effective because it provides a structured framework around work and breaks, helping to maintain focus and reduce any temptation to procrastinate. By breaking work into manageable intervals, it makes tasks less daunting and easier to tackle.

How to boost focus and concentration? Music, silence, white noise? What do studies say!

To effectively boost your concentration, the choice of sound environment is crucial. Music, if well chosen, can be an excellent ally! But prefer instrumental music, without lyrics (classical music, ambient, lofi). It is an effective shield against background noise.
However, for tasks requiring intense concentration and deep thinking, silence often remains unmatched. It frees your brain from any superfluous auditory stimulation, allowing it to allocate all its resources to the task at hand. If complete silence bothers you or if your environment is noisy, white noise is a formidable alternative. This constant and monotonous sound acts as a shield, masking sudden noises and creating a stable sound bubble, ideal for study and concentration.
