Do you know what the Pomodoro technique is? Do you understand its purpose? Let me introduce you to a technique that many people utilize to tackle tasks and complete projects and study more efficiently for their exams.
How was it invented?
Francesco Cirillo created the Pomodoro Technique as a time-management technique in the late 1980s. Cirillo was having trouble concentrating on his studies and finishing his homework. He challenged himself to devote only 10 minutes of concentrated study time because he was feeling overburdened.
The challenge inspired him to use a tomato-shaped kitchen timer (Pomodoro in Italian), and he invented the Pomodoro technique.

After each Pomodoro, take a 5-minute break.
