How it Works
How it Works
Choose a task or subject you want to study.
Set a timer for 25 minutes — this is called one “Pomodoro.”
Work on your task with full focus until the timer rings. Avoid all distractions during this time (no phones, no social media).
When the timer goes off, take a 5-minute break. Stretch, get a drink, or do something relaxing — but don’t start another task.
Repeat this cycle four times (four Pomodoros).
After completing four Pomodoros, take a longer break of 15 to 30 minutes. Use this time to recharge fully before starting again.
Why it works

Boosts Focus: Short bursts of work are easier to maintain than long, unbroken sessions.
Increases Productivity: The timer creates a sense of urgency, encouraging you to get more done.
Reduces Procrastination: Knowing a break is coming helps you start and stick with tasks.
Prevents Burnout: Regular breaks refresh your mind and reduce mental fatigue.
Improves Time Awareness: You develop a better sense of how long tasks take, helping with planning.
