What is the Pomodoro Technique?

The Pomodoro Technique is a time management framework that encourages people to work with the time they have instead of arguing. Using this method, you break your work day into 25-minute lumps separated by five-minute breaks. These spans are referred to as pomodoros. After circling pomodoros, you take an additional 15 to 20 minutes break.

Indeed, I have never been more enthusiastic about productivity hacks and tips.

However, when I came to know about Pomodoro Technique via online course, I thought that this would definitely increase my productivity even though I postponed the project. Duh!!

But obviously, testing myself is actually what I did.
So after I finished reading my project work I put in the word pomodoro to do more research so I got a timer called pomofocus which is an online pomodoro timer and you never know how happy I am to see that because the phone is one of my biggest distractions and yes thanks to my low cell phone battery.

I had to complete my thesis methodology which was really a hard task to completely even in hours and the deadline was near.

I set a 25-minutes alarm at that time. I was using my laptop.
I had to complete a thesis method which was hard work to do completely even for hours.
I plugged my cell phone into my charger and started work. So at first it was really hard as my mind was wandering a lot. I would already have a trip to Turkey in less than 5 minutes rather than go back unnoticed and focus. And it was a good way to relax as I did. The other two sessions were unbelievable and my mind raced as I looked at the progress of my work as it was actually half done.
Although it was very difficult for me to concentrate because that was less likely for me.
I took a 5 minute break after all the alarms. I am so happy that I have all the ticks and have succeeded in a job like this for the first time in my life yayyyy!!
I will use this method more often now for sure to get my tasks done on time.
