The Pomodoro Technique: The Acclaimed Time-Management System That Has Transformed How We Work

<b>Available through bookstores for the first time, the internationally acclaimed time management system that has been used by millions, written by Francesco Cirillo, creator of the Pomodoro Technique<i>.</i></b><br> <b><i>  </i></b><br> Francesco Cirillo developed his famed system for improving productivity as a college student thirty years ago. Using a kitchen timer shaped like a <i>pomodoro</i> (Italian for <i>tomato</i>), Cirillo divided the time he spent working on a project into 25-minute intervals, with 5-minute breaks in between, in order to get more done, without interruptions.  By grouping a number of <i>pomodoros </i>together, users can tackle a project of any length, and drastically improve their productivity, enhance their focus, and better achieve their goals. <br><br>Originally self-published, and shared virally online, this new publication of <i>The Pomodoro Technique </i>includes several new chapters on how teams can use the <i>pomodoro</i> method to save time and increase productivity. The process underlying Cirillo’s technique includes five stages: <b>planning</b> the day’s tasks, <b>tracking</b> your efforts, <b>recording</b> your daily activities, <b>processing</b> what you have done, and <b>visualizing </b>areas for improvement. With this tried and tested method, readers can simplify their work, find out how much time and effort a task really requires, and improve their focus so they can get more done in the same amount of time each day.
