Any project manager will tell you that staying on time is the key to any successful project, but how can you best do that? Trying out tricks to manage time, that’s how. One of the best ways is utilizing something you probably already have sitting in your kitchen, a simple timer. That tool is the basis to the Pomodoro Technique and can change how you handle tasks when fighting time.
Microserf tried out the Pomodoro Technique and Staffan Nöteberg applied the technique in 5 minutes with instant results. Rick Osborne also stumbled upon the Pomodoro Technique and seemed to accomplish a lot more in the same amount of time, utilizing the techniques instructed.
Time battles everyone, but a piece of paper, pencil and a kitchen timer can really help you make the most out of just 25 minutes a day.
