For many, when it comes to getting to work, time is our greatest enemy: it seems to stretch out endlessly when you have a hard job to do, then it flies away when you waste time on yourself distract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ineffective. If that’s the hallmark of your day’s work, then there’s a simple way to quickly improve your productivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Pomodoro Technique offers a method to divide your work into small, manageable tasks for a fixed, uninterrupted time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The technique of Pomodoro<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The Pomodoro technique is as simple as it is effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You choose a single<\/em> task. <\/strong>Preferably, something that deserves full attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You set a timer for 25 minutes ( pomodoro<\/em> ). <\/strong>You agree to spend this time on the work to be done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do the job.\u00a0<\/strong>Do not be a slave to your interruptions.\u00a0When you think of something that is likely to stop you, write it down on a piece of paper and continue your pomodoro.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the timer rings, take a 5-minute break to relax. <\/strong>Stretch, drink a glass of water, meditate, do anything unrelated to work. The sound signal helps your mind to internalize the transition from a targeted work state to relaxation and vice versa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After finishing 4 pomodor<\/em>o, take a longer break of 20 to 30 minutes. <\/strong>This allows your brain to rest to facilitate the assimilation of new information and avoid mental fatigue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The advantages of Pomodoro<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Better measure your time<\/strong>.\u00a0Take a list to make an inventory of your tasks.\u00a0Mark a cross next to the task for each past pomodoro.\u00a0At the end of your day, you will have a good indicator of your work time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cut any interruptions (social networks, emails, phone). <\/strong>Winning in discipline means learning to say no to focus on the essentials. Your social life will not collapse if you are unavailable for 25 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Estimate the time spent. <\/strong>With experience, you will be able to estimate how many pomodor<\/em>o will be needed to complete a task.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example: Do research – 2 pomodoro; Write an article – 3 pomodoro; Re-read and correct mistakes – 1 pomodoro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To gain inefficiency. <\/strong>After each pomodoro, you can measure your progress by noting anything that can help you improve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Define your limits. <\/strong>What motivates you to complete a task within a specified time. The more time you have to complete a task, the longer it will take. It’s Parkinson’s law and the students know it … very well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Set your goals. <\/strong>Realizing that you spend a lot of time doing something that is not essential, allows you to redefine your priorities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
