136. Taking back your time with the Pomodoro Technique
Manage episode 305658756 series 2338187
Oh, friend. I hear about it so often, clients just want to find greater focus. They feel like they have a ton of open tabs all pulled up in their brain at once. They report they try to get work done but end up trying to do everything all at once so get nothing really done at all. (And let's be clear, I certainly fall in this camp at times.)
But then I started the Pomodoro Party! (I think I need to trademark this name; it's so catchy, right?)
It's revolutionized how I work and focus, how I homeschooled Henry (and he's now teaching others about it!), and what I offer in the Courageous Life Society. (We work together online on Monday mornings from 9-11am CST using the pomodoro party method. It's the BEST way to start the week - fun + focus!!)
Pomodoro Party Steps (which I've simplified after taping because who can remember all 10 steps - ha!)
1. Write out your pomodoro party success list and a plan for each block of time.
2. Turn your phone on Do Not Disturb. Hide your email on your computer. Use one tab at a time.
3. Set your timer for 25 minutes and GO!
4. When timer goes off, review your accomplishments and then take a party break. Your brain will thank you later.
5. GO for another 25 minutes! Repeat steps 3 & 4 for three more sessions. After four blocks, take a 15-20 minute break!
I can't wait to hear about your experience with the pomo party! Please feel free to tag me on IG @livesofcourage or send me an email at hello@jessicastong.com. XOXOXO
