Time is money

Yeah, this is the blog about time to improve. Improve but improve what? It's time to improve tasks. The technique I am going to show you is about saving time, getting things done on time and protection from the task of procrastination. And this is ‘’ Eat the frog with a Pomodoro’’ yuk eating a frog but o yey it followed by a Pomodoro ( tomato ). I hope you got the phrase that in this technique there is a filthy thing to eat that is the frog but its followed by yummy tomato.

So same thing we should apply in normal life when working in a project. Set specific time and divide your time in different interval and after every interval give yourself a reward may some rest, watching a interesting video on youtube and in this way your work will finish even before procrastination and you will eat the frog what we mean the difficult task and also the Pomodoro which we mean the reward may differ from person to person.

Pomodoro

For instance, I give you a practical example I just did a day before.

What I did is I had projected from Amal academy and they required comment discussion in it so what I did I thought I should give it 1 hour and I divide this 1 hour into 2 intervals.

And I started this in the evening I was in office and I thought this would be the best place for that rather than home. And I decided to give me the reward of 10 minutes break in which I had to have fun on youtube. And I started and I felt there were some disruption in my work like

  1. I need to leave the work to go to a dispenser for drinking water. So I should have filled a litter bottle already as I drink too much.
  2. And I became annoyed by the staff leaving the office in the evening.
  3. I too was a little bit dozing.

And the same process repeated in the next interval with some improvement and my task was finished earlier then my expectation otherwise I had to do it in tens of intervals sometimes here and sometimes there. So this technique really worked for me and now I believe I will apply it furthermore for another task

Don't wait for your turn just jump in

Its conclusion is very simple that if you want to save from procrastination of your task then divide your task into different intervals and it will be solved easily. And keep in mind time is money and once it lost that cannot return like other assets. So have a look at your time it's very important for your life and time will not wait for your return once it's done then no other way.
