The Pomodoro technique
Work in focused 25-minute blocks separated by 5-minute breaks, with a longer break after every four. Making the unit of work small and finite is what makes it so effective against procrastination.
Tuning the intervals
The classic 25/5 split is a starting point. Some people prefer 50/10 for deep work — the timer above lets you adjust both and find what sustains your focus.
From studying to interview prep
The same focused sprints that get you through coursework work for case practice. Block off a few pomodoros a day and your prep compounds fast.
