Pomodoro Technique Review

Recently I asked my boss if I can work in a cafe. I told them “I feel very lazy in the office. I need tasks done and a suitable environment”. I feel being trapped in a space I have no choice over within a timeline I have no choice over. I know, you would not want an employee like that. Anyway, I asked and eventually got what I wanted.
What happened next is that I spend time & money in several cafes still feeling unproductive. However the pressure from my own promise accelarated my working pace.
Now I am coming back to office and FB-ing, he he, just kidding. I just realized that what crucial to getting things done is more about mental state than space. To do that we don’t need fancy time management tools. We need something easy to understand and flexible to adapt.
Pomodoro is a technique like that which explores how we can practice single-tasking in a crazy multi-tasking world. Do you know that actually Pomorodo is just a mispronunciation of “Tomato”? But forget about that stupid etymology then we can enjoy the journey ahead. What motivated the author to write the book, why the name pomodoro, what are the psychology boost or obstacle in implementing it . Most importantly, Why single-tasking? The best things are still ahead.
