Tbh, pomodoros don't have to be 25 minutes on 5 minutes off. Some days, it's a 10 minutes on, 5 minutes off kinda day. Or 25 minutes on, 10 minutes off kinda day. Let yourself have those variations to rest enough between work.

The Pomodoro technique is a common time management hack, suggesting a standard 25 minute work period spaced with 5 minute breaks. My biggest hurdle was switching from the 5-minute breaks back to work.

identify your triggers
what causes you to procrastinate? is it fear of failure, perfectionism, boredom, or overwhelm? recognize your triggers so you can address them head-on.
2. break it down
big tasks can feel overwhelming, leading to procrastination. break them down into smaller, manageable steps and tackle them one at a time. progress, no matter how small, is still progress!
3. set clear goals
define specific, achievable goals for yourself and set deadlines. having a clear target to work towards will keep you focused and motivated.
4. create a game plan
plan your day ahead of time and schedule dedicated blocks for tasks. set realistic timelines and hold yourself accountable to them.
5. eliminate distractions
identify distractions in your environment and take steps to minimize them. whether it's turning off notifications, finding a quiet workspace, or using website blockers, create a conducive environment for productivity.
6. use the pomodoro technique
break your work into intervals, typically 25 minutes of focused work followed by a 5 minute break. this technique can help increase focus and productivity while preventing burnout. (this really helps me personally!)
7. practice self-compassion
be kind to yourself when you slip up. we're all human, and occasional bouts of procrastination are normal. instead of dwelling on past procrastination, focus on what you can do right now to move forward.
8. find accountability
share your goals with a friend, family member, or coworker who can help keep you accountable. having someone to check in with can provide an extra boost of motivation.
9. reward yourself
celebrate your accomplishments, no matter how small. treat yourself to something you enjoy after completing a task or reaching a milestone. positive reinforcement can help reinforce productive habits.

If pomodoros have worked for you in the past, but they’re no longer working for you now, maybe it’s time to rest.

45:15 pomodoro ~ study technique
the pomodoro technique was developed in the late 1980's by francesco cirillo, who was a university student at the time. here’s how it came about:
struggling to focus. cirillo found himself struggling to focus on his studies and complete assignments. feeling overwhelmed, he sought a way to improve his productivity and concentration.
the tomato timer. inspired by a kitchen timer shaped like a tomato (known as “pomodoro” in italian), cirillo decided to experiment with time management methods. he set a two-minute timer for himself and challenged himself to stay focused for just two minutes.
twenty-five-minute work intervals. building on this idea, cirillo refined the technique. he divided his work into twenty-five-minute intervals, which he called “pomodoros”. during each pomodoro, he worked diligently on a task without distractions.
short breaks. after each twenty-five-minute work interval, cirillo took a five-minute break. these breaks allowed him to recharge and maintain focus.
longer breaks. after completing four pomodoros (a total of one-hundred minutes), he rewarded himself with a longer break of fifteen to thirty minutes. this cycle helped him manage his time effectively.
some challenges that people face with the pomodoro timer include: facing interruptions and distractions, task switching, ridgity, ignoring breaks, perfectionism and fatigue.
this is why some students choose to partake in a 45:15 pomodoro, as it allows them to spend more time on their tasks, and then they can enjoy a longer break.
longer intervals allow for deep focus. some students find it difficult to switch tasks every twenty-five-minutes, preferring to immerse themselves in a topic for a longer period.
certain academic tasks, such as extended essays, research and programming, require sustained attention. longer pomodoros accommodate this better.
it's important to remember that everyone has different levels of focus and a unique productivity rhythm. it's important to test out different structures and strategies and learn what works best with your natural flow.

It happens on a mundane Thursday night. Steve came to hang out after his shift, they didn’t smoke or drink anything because Steve still has a shift early morning tomorrow. They fall asleep tucked together in Eddie’s bed because, ya know, platonic.
It’s around 6 in the morning when Eddie wakes up. They’re facing each other, there’s a noticeable space between the two of them (because again platonic). There’s a soft yellow hue seeping through the window, the light dancing on Steve’s face. From where Eddie is laying, he can watch Steve’s sleeping face. He can count the moles, can trace the freckles scattered on his face, can see the slope of his nose, the pinkness of his lips.
And god, does he want to touch Steve’s face. Caress it, hold it, kiss ever square and inch of it.
His first mistake was moving closer, like the few inches of space between the two of them wasn’t enough. He moves closer so he can look at him better. His second mistake was letting his hand ghost on Steve’s features, hands lightly tracing moles and freckles, like an artist admiring his favorite work.
His fingers ghost on Steve’s lips. It’s always been pink, he thinks Steve actually wears lipgloss some days but he doesn’t even want to think about that right now. In a moment of weakness, his lets a finger touch it. It’s soft, just like how he thought it would be.
If he lets himself be delusional, it might feel different when he gets the chance to kiss him. But he’s so sure it will be fucking soft (and sweet, and amazing, and wonderful, god help him).
Eddie stares at him, slowly moving his hand off Steve’s face because the other might wake up any moment now and he doesn’t want to be caught touching him. He had no reason to be doing so.
But his hand doesn’t get far, Steve catching his wrist, warm hands tightening around it.
A smile spreads on Steve’s face, his eyes slowly opening. It takes everything in Eddie to not get lost in his brown eyes right now, because he literally just got caught.
“You’re being a creep, Eddie.” Steve says, his voice teasing. None of it registers to Eddie. His heart is racing too fast, his mind running and sputtering for an excuse.
“I— I— I wasn’t—“
“You just touched my lips and my whole face. Are you seriously still not gonna kiss me?”
Eddie’s eyes widen at the question, heart thumping in his chest louder than it has ever.
Steve rolls his eyes, “Fine. I’ll do it.”
And before Eddie can even process anything, Steve’s lips are on his.
Turns out he was right, Steve’s lips are soft (and sweet, and amazing, and wonderful, just like its owner).
