How to stay focused?
Attention is very important for everyone. You can reduce the number of mistakes you may make by giving proper attention and engaging in that work. Attention is also very important to successfully complete that activity. But the problem for many people is that they have difficulty keeping their attention in one place. In this article, I will show you a simple way to keep your attention in one place and be able to do any task. That is POMODORO TECHNIQUE.
This was introduced by an Italian student named Fransessco Cirillo. Pomodoro means tomato in Italian. There are 5 steps here.
1) Activity selection
Here you have to select the activity or task you are going to perform. If you are using this method to study, I suggest you use most boring subjects you don't like in the morning or afternoon. Spend the night on your favorite subjects. If you're using this at work, start with the action you need to deliver or finish soon.
Most importantly, choose one activity at a time.
2) Get away from all distractions.
Put away all distractions for a while. Stay away from everything, especially the phone, social media, external noises. You choose the position that is most convenient for you to work. Let those around you know that you are going to work with some difficulty. If possible, use an app that blocks social media.
3) 25 minutes
In this method, you should perform the activity for 25 minutes.
That is, you keep the time at 25 minutes. Do only that action within those 25 minutes. Leave other outside work for later.
4) 5 minutes
After that 25 minutes take a 5 minute break. Do not engage in activities that last more than 5 minutes during this break. Take a short break away from work. Take a good breath. Drink a glass of water. Listen to some music. Once the 5 minutes are up, move on to the next 25 minutes.
5) Long rest
After four times (25-minute segments) like this, take a 20-minute break. Listen to a song you like during that break. Engage in an activity that refreshes the mind. Relax your mind so that you can give full attention to the action for the next 25 minutes. If there is nothing in your activity within these 20 minutes, stop thinking about the previous work. Relax the mind as much as possible. Now at the end of 20 minutes work again.
By practicing this method continuously, it is possible to do any work efficiently and with good focus.
Happy Studying!
