Many people have this kind of confusion: time is like a slap in the face, watching the time rushing away from the fingers, and they are busy every day, but have not done anything that has achievements. Why is this so? The Pomodoro Technique tells you why:

[WHAT] What is the Pomodoro Technique?

Pomodoro Technique is a time management method proposed by Italian university student Francesco Cirillo in the 1980s. He uses a timer (starting with a tomato-shaped alarm clock used in the kitchen, Italian pomodoro means "tomato") to divide work and study time into 25-minute working hours (1 "tomato time") And a 5-minute "rest time".

[WHY] Why use the Pomodoro Technique?

1. Facing complexity, it is discouraged.
2, small things busy one day, the same thing did not do.
3, the deadline, step by step.
4, return to work from rest, mental adjustment can not come.

[HOW] How to use the Pomodoro Technique?

1, tools
The simple and easy way of working on the tomato is reflected in all aspects. The Pomodoro Technique tool is extremely simple, requiring only a pen or pencil, a kitchen timer, three sheets of white paper or lined paper.
You can choose any type of timer for your office environment. It can be a mechanical kitchen timer, an hourglass, a mobile phone's vibrating alarm or a mobile app (of course, me).

2. List the "Today's To Do" list
Twist a five-minute Pomodoro, take a pen and a piece of paper and write out the items to be done item by item, and become a list of “Today's To Do”. You can also select the items in your "Event List" and fill in the "Today's To Do" list.
The "List of Activities" is something you have to do in the near future. "Today's To Do" is a commitment within the time limit. If you don't plan to do something today, don't write it in.

3, enter the Pomodoro
A Pomodoro, only do one thing. Sort the things in your "Today's To Do" list by importance, choose the one that you think is the most important, enter the Pomodoro, focus on this matter within 25 minute…
