The Pomodoro Method of Studying

Decide what you want to accomplish and break your work shorter tasks​

2

Set a timer for 25 minutes, and start studying. 

There are many pomodoro apps available for your phone!​

Minimize your distractions during the pomodoro interval.  

If a thought pops into your head write it down. If a friend calls let them know you will call them back later..

After 25 minutes take a short 5-10 minute break. ​

Grab a coffee, go for a walk, call back your friend, or do something else relaxing.

Repeat.

After 4 pomodoros take a longer break for 20-30 minutes.​
