The Pomodoro Technique
The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo that uses a timer to break work into 25-minute focused intervals (called "Pomodoros"), separated by short 5-minute breaks. After completing 4 Pomodoros, take a longer 15-30 minute break. This method helps improve focus, reduce mental fatigue, and increase productivity.
