Pomodoro Technique
Finally adopted the Pomodoro technique, and this is my recipe:
- I call it pomidorka (‘a little tomato’ in Russian).
- It’s the minimal unit of the focused work.
- No Slack, email, phone and any other distraction.
- Classic 25-minute session with lo-fi beat music on the headphones.
- Then a 10-minute break, but:
- 5 minutes for the writing down all the information I’ve learned. Not dive into details, just to create a checkpoint and empty the brain.
- 5 minutes for the rest, bring another glass of water, visit the restroom, eye exercises, etc.
- Repeat until start feeling stupid, then switch to operational tasks.
- Pomodoro Timer for Obsidian is good
