Here’s a productivity strategy that might give you a boost in the final days of the 90-Day Novel Challenge.

Pomodoro is named after the old tomato timers you might remember from your grandma’s kitchen. The process is simple:

Step 1: Identify the task you’re going to work on.

Step 2: Start a timer for 25 minutes. Only work on the task you assigned. No breaks, no distractions.

Step 3: Take a five-minute break. Check your phone, go to the bathroom, whatever you need to do.

Step 4: Repeat the process.

This process can really help you to dig in and get started on your work right away.

ASSIGNMENT: Write for at least one hour, and add at least 1,000 new words to your manuscript. Give Pomodoro a try.
