Why the Pomodoro Technique doesn’t work for YOU! 🍎📚

[@Ruthie.333]

The technique doesn't work for me, because ifI am focused, I am focused. I can study for 5 hours. But if I keep on taking breaks every 25 minutes,I will lose my focus since I am a person who gets distracted very easily. Then I get demotivated and no longer wanna study

[@abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz937]

you just described me

[@ehsan2702]

So true, I wrote the same exact thing before seeing this comment

[@The-lefthandeddoc]

Same like me

[@shellow4143]

you can also do 1 hour 10 min pause etc

[@AbdullahKhan15]

Yh why not

[@huyphanducnhat1609]

i do 50/5 for 3 times,after that i rest for 30->45min,maybe excercise with my wii or switch fit,snacks,and then continue,i feel that 25/5 will break my attention span,50/5 or 45/5 is better also,open the window,if your room is full of fresh air,your brain works harder

[@ble565]

thanks

[@Dr.S3psis]

For the people who say the technique is whack because they go on for 4-5 hours at a stretch and taking short breaks is detrimental to their flow. You guys should realise you can skip breaks. These breaks and boundaries in general are to help ‘you’ not the other way around. If you feel like you are in the groove, then do not stop. Keep going. When you feel like your focus is off take the next break whenever it comes. The break ending will motivate you to sit back down and not just waste your time.

[@AbdullahKhan15]

That’s some seriously good advice 👍

[@Dr.S3psis]

@@AbdullahKhan15 glad you found it helpful. Keep the good content coming.

[@hugsyousotights3231]

you just blew my mind 😭

[@TravellerZasha]

For me the technique helps me get started but I'm not strict about it. Sometimes 25 minutes isn't enough and it interrupts my study and sometimes 5 minutes isn't enough to refresh my brain to study again. I prefer task based study i.e taking a break every time I finish a chapter/problem.

My breaks are like 4 hours 😂 ….

[@Productivezone-e2p]

I use 50-10 pomodoro and i usually study for 15-16 hours and this works with 10 mins consistent breaks

[@imaweakgirl]

Agreed, I use it and it works really well

[@clob3896]

Yes 50-10 is the best for me. 25-5 feels too short. But 25-5 helped me to start! It helped me to realize how much can be done even in that time frame if we focus. I have trouble concentrating. The countdown staring at my face made me focus. And now I have moved on to 50-10 . 😊 whenever I feel like I'm not doing much, I go back to 25-5 again.

[@ehsan2702]

To be honest, you should use the pomodoro technique if you don't revise that much or get distracted. I found that when have been revising for a long time the pomodoro technique is a waste, as you can easily get into a 4 hour work flow and have deep focus

[@Ace_Guardian]

Pomodoro is a great technique for editing videos! Those 5 mins breaks are really necessary to prevent burnout and sometimes these breaks provide good ideas too!

[@Bridgetl-_-l]

How pomodro works depends.. my focusing time is around 1.1:45 hrs so I'll study straight and take a break for 20 mins.. try this might work for you

[@x_cv4695]

Pomodoro does work, but it depends on the person to know how it is most effective to one. For example my best friend loves 25/5 because she has difficulty staying focused for long periods of time. Whereas for me 50/10 is a better option because I only get in the zone after 20 minutes so then I can work focused for 40 minutesuntil I'm reminded I need to get a break, drink water, stretch, clear my mind and then go back to it.

[@gracie9717]

Gonna try it! Thank you so much 🤗

[@yoonshub]

It doesn't work for me because i tend to focus for a long period of time like 7-8 hours straight. And then take a long break. This works for me because I study during nights and i am not distracted at all,so i van sit for a long time with no breaks.

[@Emma-mx2io]

Pomadoro is the best way I have ever studied I can study for 6 hours straight it is awesome

[@AbdullahKhan15]

6 hours at a time is mad 🫡

[@rupdeepsarkar1627]

​@@AbdullahKhan15 I literally study for 7hrs straight without out distraction and total 15hrs a day ... I'm preparing for JEE

[@Curious_Student_Jia]

​​@@AbdullahKhan15 if that doesn't work for you....doesn't mean it won't make up for all as well....it's a great way to study for me... And for millions of other people

[@Rajat-n5k]

I study for an hour and then take a 10 min break and to be honest it's very useful for me😅

[@MotivationalFire...]

Sir, After 4 PROMODARO can I take a long break of 1-2 hr. I am Confused please help🥺

[@AbdullahKhan15]

Yes, it would be ideal to take a longer break to feel refreshed when you get back to studying.

[@MotivationalFire...]

@@AbdullahKhan15 but PROMODARO TECNIQUE gives only 20-30 min break my Que is any problem in focus or productivity affect in next session

[@jezaniahapraku]

@@MotivationalFire... Hi. Here's a message for you if you still need help. You shouldn't break for too long because it could affect your focus or productivity (or both). Here's a video from Justin Sung that you may find helpful. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pZ27YaCOoZZ1b9U

[@edithwong1119]

MY ass be studying for so DM long if ya idk it's 7 hour tution and normal study Kumon be going hell on me

[@bhakutipea427]

Different people have different durations of total concentration. So, we have to find that by recording our times and taking an average of our durations of total concentration. Then we can add appropriate minutes required for break time.

[@andh2627]

If one is able to get into the flow state often, the pomodoro technique will actually ruin your focus.

[@AryaShivam-tu6zw]

Gradually increasing the break time is the key takeaway for me . Thanks mate

[@youtubeaudiobooks915]

Pomodoro disturbs flow state

[@quietkid1812]

60-10 is best for me. I take a while to focus on my task but once I start I hate to take a break so 60 -10 works for me

[@devki_nandan_krishn]

60/10 pormodo is the best thing ever

[@aymanandimad1011]

أستغفر اله

[@bhakutipea427]

I guess, we can study till we run out of concentration fuel and take appropriate minutes of break. Ex I studied with utmost concentration for 45 minutes and then I took a 7-8 minute break. (or) I studied for 2 hours with utmost concentration and I took a 20-30 minute break.

as an ADHD person, pomodoro works best for me. I can't focus more than 25m I will go open youtube or something.

[@DrAstro-tz1ub]

We can use the pomodoro technique when we don’t want to study that subject or anything else for focus, and we don’t need to use it when we are really focused on the task which u are doing Edit: and thanks for explaining 😊

[@swayammishra8491]

Pomodoro perfectly works for me even when i use 6 to 10 slots of it (3 - 5 hour with 5 min brk in evry 25 min)

[@-kdrama.obsessed.Iris303-]

Not to flexSKSKSKKCKSKSKKSKSKKSKKX🤭🤭🤭🤭 I can stay focused for 45 minutes+

[@Mrshadboy]

I would we use flowmodoro because I wouldn't want to leave my focus session I divide the time i spent studying by 5 and break my blocks

tbh i like to study for hours that study for just 25 mins and take a 5 min break because if i get the break i will lose my concentration and boom my study plan ruined

[@AbdullahKhan15]

Yeah that’s true if you can sit for longer times and also want longer breaks then 25/5 isn’t for you

[@blandface9957]

I actually do the 45 min on 15 min off 😅 it works for me because I run around and clean my house on my times off lol

I have ADHD and have no medication to focus, yet I can study for hours without any problems … if you can only focus for 25 minutes something is wrong with you and it’s not ADHD 😂
