The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo . It suggets to break work into intervals, typically 25 minutes in length, separated by short breaks. Each interval is known as a pomodoro, a Italian word for tomato, named after the tomato-shaped kitchen timer used by Cirillo when he was an university student.

The technique has six steps:

  1. Decide on the task to be done
  2. Set the pomodoro timer (typically for 25 minutes)
  3. Work on the task
  4. End work when the timer rings and take a short break (typically 5–10 minutes)
  5. If you have finished fewer than three pomodoros, go back to Step 2 and repeat until you go through all three pomodoros
  6. After three pomodoros are done, take the fourth pomodoro and then take a long break (typically 20 to 30 minutes). Once the long break is finished, return to step 2.

A goal of the technique is to increase the effective time management and to reduce the interruptions on focus and flow of tasks. After task completion in a pomodoro, any remaining time should be devoted to activities for review of the work completed and also list out the further upcoming tasks.
