📕📚The Cherry Technique📚📚

You have probably already heard of the Pomodoro Technique. However, just in case you’re not familiar with it, it’s a time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo, an Italian entrepreneur. It consists of working in small shifts of twenty-five minutes of focused work — that is, with no interruptions — with short breaks of three to five minutes. The technique was named after the kitchen timer that Cirillo used, which had the shape of a tomato — Pomodoro in Italian. The benefits of this time management technique are many. For example, it helps reduce distractions; it makes you much more productive and helps you get things done; you can measure your work, so you have an idea of how long you have spent on your daily tasks.

After using this technique for a while, I realized I could adapt it to my rhythm. So I tried some alternatives. I broke down my daily work routine into forty-minutes and fifty-minutes time blocks, with longer breaks. After trying several alternatives, I found my ideal Pomodoro duration. Now, I usually work in twenty-minutes intervals — with no interruptions and removing any distraction — and take a small five-minutes break in between. Since the time blocks are shorter, I decided to call my customized method Cherry Technique. It’s only five minutes shorter than the Pomodoro technique, but I find it has a huge impact on my productivity, as my attention span significantly decreases after around twenty minutes.

🔰How to apply this habit, in a nutshell❓

Simple, find your ideal shift duration. Try to work with different intervals — for example, you can try twenty, thirty, or forty-minutes time blocks — and see what works best for you. And don’t forget to keep track of the time blocks you’re working on — I like to write them down on a piece of paper. I find it’s a great way to feel excited and eager to get as much completed as I can. Not to mention, seeing how much I worked at the end of each day gives a good boost to my self-confidence.

“If you don’t pay appropriate attention to what has your attention, it will take more of your attention than it deserves.”
