For me it's definitely Pomodoro Technique! đđ đ đ
Being one of the most popular time management methods, the Pomodoro Technique is used by over 2 million people worldwide.
The basic concept behind it is that it encourages people to work with the time they have rather than against it.
The technique works by breaking your workday into 25-minute chunks that are separated by 5-minute breaks. The intervals between the work sessions are called âpomodorosâ. After around four pomodoros, you then take a more extended break of about 15 to 30 minutes.
When working like this, a sense of urgency is introduced. You only have 25 minutes to make as much progress on a task as possible. You canât sit around for hours procrastinating. This combats the feeling of having an endless amount of time in the day to get things done.
Also, sometimes itâs so easy to get caught up in work and not take any time to rest. With the Pomodoro Technique, the timer constantly reminds you to take a break. This prevents you from feeling too drained and exhausted.
How to implement the Pomodoro Technique?
1. Select a task you wish to complete.
2. Set your timer for 25 minutes.
3. Concentrate fully on your task and work on it until the timer rings.
4. Take a short break of 5 minutes.
5. After repeating this 4 times, take a longer break of 15-30 minutes. Start working again when you feel recharged and ready to tackle another 25-minute work session.
6. Repeat this process a few times during the day.
Even though youâre taking a lot of breaks, youâll find that you can achieve a lot when utilizing the Pomodoro method!
âCheers! đ
Mark Twain once said: âEat a live frog first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you the rest of the dayâ. This is the most effective time management technique for me to deal with the tasks and not procrastinate.
I think, most of you know what it is, but let me clarify it briefly just in case. Eating the frog in the morning means dealing with the tasks youâd better postpone or youâd better never do at all, so the ones you feel uncomfortable accomplishing for some reason.
No matter at work or home, once Iâve 'eaten the frog' I can have an easier rest of the day, and it feels awesome.
