Pomodoro Technique

I love this, have been using it for a couple months to pace myself, even out the manic over-doing it bursts and the can't-seem-to-get-started lows.

The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method that can be used for any kind of task. For many people, time is an enemy. The anxiety triggered by "the ticking clock", especially when a deadline is involved, leads to ineffective work and study habits which in turn lead to procrastination.
What do you need to start?
- A kitchen timer
- A sheet of paper
The basic unit of work in the Pomodoro Technique can be split in five simple steps:
- Choose a task to be accomplished
- Set the Pomodoro to 25 minutes (the Pomodoro is the timer)
- Work on the task until the Pomodoro rings, then put a check on your sheet of paper
- Take a short break (5 minutes is OK)
- Every 4 Pomodoros take a longer break
