Get Productive with Pomodoro
Ugh! Tuesday is my least favorite day of the week. On Monday, I'm still fresh from the weekend. Wednesday is hump day. Thursday is Friday eve. And Friday is Fri-yay! On Tuesday, all there is to look forward to is 4 more days of the work week.
This particular Tuesday I'm struggling to stay motivated and focused. When I get like this, I find that taking a break or breaking up my routine helps me refocus. If I can get away from work I'll take a walk, run an errand, work on a craft project, squeeze in a nap, or simply sit outside and enjoy the sun on my face for a while.
When I can't get away, I open a Pomodoro Technique timer in my browser and power through. The built-in breaks make all the difference for my productivity and sanity. If you're not familiar with the Pomodoro Technique and you'd like to learn more, here are some links to help you get started:
