Eat that Frog with a Pomodoro
In the late 1980’s, Francesco Cirillo first came up with the Pomodoro System. Cirillo came up with the name (which is an Italian word for “tomato”) because he utilized a tomato-shaped egg timer when managing his time.

The idea behind the Pomodoro Technique is to break down all of your tasks into 25 minute time blocks. Between each time block, there is a five minute break. And after completing four Pomodoros you take a longer break — usually 15 to 30 minutes.
In theory, this strategy works because you completely focus on one task (like writing) without shifting focus or multitasking. When the clock is ticking, you ignore the urge to check email, hop on Facebook, answer text messages or do any other distracting activity. You’re in the zone and completely focused.
I use this technique of Pomodoro to writing this blog project on “Eat that Frog with a Pomodoro”. During this blog I have faced many restriction like; Facebook, messages, WhatsApp, Home Tasks etc. First 25min of Pomodoro timer it was difficult to complete this task, because there are many restrictions. But next I close all of these restrictions, logout Facebook, Whatsapp and other tasks, I have full focus on to writing the blog.

However, after using this technique, I can honestly say it’s been a “game changer” when it comes to improving my personal productivity. It doesn’t matter what task I’m doing writing, answering questions, social media, the ticking clock in the background keeps me focused on the task at hand.
The time Management is the most important for every tasks, if you learn how to manage time you can easily do the tasks.

If you decide to implement this system you’ll be able to:
- Eliminate the multi-tasking habit.
- Focus on the task at hand.
- Get more things done because you’ll have a sense of urgency.
- Avoid the perfectionist mindset by overly “fine-tuning” a project.
- Build higher levels of willpower and concentration.
- Decrease stress levels because you’re doing one thing at a time.
- That just a taste of what your life could be like by using the Pomodoro technique. So let’s talk about to develop this time-blocking habit.
