What is the Pomodoro Technique?
The Pomodoro Technique was developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s. Work for 25 minutes with full focus, then take a 5-minute break. After 4 sessions, take a longer 15-30 minute break. Each 25-minute session is called a "Pomodoro" (Italian for tomato, named after Cirillo's tomato-shaped kitchen timer).
Why It Works
- Breaks work into manageable chunks that feel less overwhelming
- Frequent breaks prevent mental fatigue and maintain concentration
- Creates urgency that reduces procrastination
- Tracks how many Pomodoros tasks take for better future planning
