I don’t think pomodoro technique would work for me. If I set 25 minutes to complete a task, while solving that task I would almost inevitably find some concept along the way that I’m not familiar with.
And I just can’t go further without grasping at least the basics of the concept. And that’s how 10 min of 25 have been spent on something else.
It’s not a bad thing, I’ve learnt something new, but my attempt of completing the task has kind of failed.
I’m still looking for a better way to organize myself. This post has definitely given me something to reflect on. Thanks!
I am a technology lover in all ways. I value people. I find beauty in diversity. I like to get to know people. Programming is just an excuse for all of that.
Hi, I am glad you liked it. Well, that also happens to me, start a task and find a new concept or something new to learn and some of the time is spent on learning and not developing/executing the task.
I see this not a bad thing thou because, in the end, you are still working on the main subject and learning something that will help to finish the task.
When I started the Pomodoro technique I was more focused on the time really not being wasted and not so much on the task being done/completed. Maybe this approach will help you.
I subscribe to your idea. My main goal is actually to not waste any time.
But taking a break is sometimes needed in order to assimilate information. I’ll give pomodoro technique a try. Thanks!
