Procrastination is a challenge that we all have faced at some point or another in our life which has disturbed our productivity.

Does it have a countermeasure? This is the question which was answered in form of a big yes by “Francesco Cirillo” in late 1980. Facing internal resistance I experimented applying the Pomodoro technique to boost productivity and guess what it worked!

By following the simple and easy to implement steps I was able to do more than I had expected myself before.

Pomodoro Algorithm

These sets of 25 min of work followed by some short breaks and a long break is indeed an excellent technique to practice time management and its positive outcomes have encouraged me to add this to my daily routine.
