When Time Feels Like It's Slipping Away, Try This

Time can be transformed from an enemy into an ally through the Pomodoro technique, a powerful productivity method that structures work into focused 25-minute intervals followed by intentional breaks. Named after the Italian word for tomato because it takes about 25 minutes to make Pomodoro pasta sauce, this technique helps overcome overwhelm by breaking large tasks into manageable chunks.

• Commit to one task for 25 minutes at a time with complete focus
• Take mandatory 5-minute breaks between each Pomodoro session
• After four cycles (25min work/5min rest), take a longer 30-minute break
• Treat distractions as you would during meditation—notice them, then return to your focus
• Write down intrusive thoughts about other tasks so your brain can release them
• Consider the Pomodoro technique as a form of meditation that trains focus
• Single-tasking prevents the mental overwhelm that comes from having "50 tabs open"

Try the Pomodoro technique and share how it works for you!
