Stay productive with the Pomodoro Technique

Have you ever felt like you can’t focus on one thing in your business? Any time you pull your laptop out to complete some work you are easily distracted with social media, your children asking questions, or social media notifications.

Do you struggle not knowing where your time went or cant give an account for what you accomplished or what you need help with in your business?

Staying focused as a woman in business especially when you have a family, career, and other obligations can be so challenging. It always feels like something or someone needs our attention.

So as you all know I am the founder of All Women Rock Global, podcast host and I offer social media marketing still to some of my old clients. Not to mention I am mother, wife, team leader at my church and lets not forget human.

I have not properly diagnosed by a physician but I truly think I have ADD as painful as this is to admit when I am in a conversation after 10 minutes my mind starts wondering like crazy. Sometimes I wonder if its because I have too much on list. Even as a mother you know how your kids have those long drawn out stories and you want them to go ahead and tell you what happened.. This is wrong I know but sometimes it can take a child forever to get to the point some adults do that too. But the point is I struggle with staying focused. 

After 10-15 minutes I am ready to get up and do something else. 

I started to see this was affecting me as a business owner and it wasn’t productive to be all over the place. 

So one day I was listening to a Youtube live with Pat Flynn this was during 2020 when he was going live everyday and someone asked about staying focused and suggested to try the Pomodoro method. I had never heard of this before I was truly intrigued to see what it was so I can get my life together. 

This popular time management method asks you to alternate pomodoro’s which are— focused work sessions — with frequent short breaks to promote sustained concentration and cut off mental fatigue.

So if you are new to this the Pomodoro method is focusing on something for 10-20 minutes and then getting up and taking a break let me give you an example 

If you are working on a blog post, focus on the blog post for 20 minutes get up out of your seat for 5 minutes and move away. 

Pomodoro Method 

So lets say you have multiple task to complete 

1. Get a to-do list and a timer.

2. Set your timer for 25 minutes, and focus on a single task until the timer rings.

3. When your session ends, mark off one pomodoro and record what you completed.

4. Then enjoy a five-minute break.

5. After four pomodoros, take a longer, more restorative 15-30 minute break.

Now I do struggle with diving into something and it can be hard to pull me away for instance if I am updating the AWR website two hours have passed by and I am still working. I exhaust myself and then its hard for me to get back productive. 

So when I first started this method once that timer went off I kept working. I had to literally make myself get up and leave. As I have learned nothing works in life unless you do. Now you have to be sort of distraction free with this for instance you cant be working and looking at Facebook notifications, emails and laughing at Tik Tok while working. If you are using a device like a phone for your timer set the timer and turn it over I personally like to use the one of my laptop so I am not tempted to pick up my phone and answer a call or a text. Sometimes I will put my phone in another room. 

If you do not have a lot of task and its easier for you to try one thing just pick one task dont overwhelm yourself sis with 

Ladies this method really helps you focus on where your time goes. 

If you are focusing on 5 different things at once its hard to track what you accomplish if you accomplish anything 

Now I am not an expert by any means on this method but it worked wonders for me so I wanted to share it with you. 

Give those time blocks your all 

Now I will say those 5 minutes break go fast just like lunch breaks and the weekends when you have a 9-5 but remember the goal why you are doing this and the benefits of it 

Once you get more comfortable with it you can try longer pomodoro’s like 45-60 minute sessions and 10-15 breaks 

I also think this method gives your mind a break, and your eyes especially if you are on a computer or laptop all day like me

Now sis I also want to say don’t forget to set the timer for your breaks don’t go watch tv and forget your break was only 5 minutes and you have 2-3 episodes of a show and totally forgot you were working. It happens trust me I know. 

Sometimes our minds can be very forgetful and if you like me I can plan to go in a room to get something get in the room and totally forget what I came in there for and if one of my daughters ask me something while I am in there you can forget it. Each session is a fresh start to reevaluate your goals, challenge yourself to focus, and limit distractions. You can make the system work for you.

• I truly believe that is true because staying consistent helps you stay focused. The goal is never perfection its try something and give it your best

  
  Get a to-do list and a timer.

  Set your timer for 25 minutes, and focus on a single task until the timer rings.

  When your session ends, mark off one Pomodoro and record what you completed.

  Then enjoy a five-minute break.

  After four pomodoro’s, take a longer, more restorative 15-30 minute break.
