Love your tips! I feel like im not alone with my struggles and you are so disciplined. It just helps me to learn from someone who is as self organized as you are :)
Ah can I literally hire you for academic coaching sessions 😅 Struggling with staying focused while working on my masters degree… but your videos are SO GREAT 👏🏻☺️💕
There's a very small trick that often helps me for this issue: You don't want to start, but the start is the hardest. So... just count from 3 to 1, and by doing so, you kind of force yourself to commit to start :D Congrats on the 1st draft! I'm telling myself to start writing next year (start of year 3)... We'll see ;)
I sometimes skip the break or take a slightly longer one too now I am used to doing Pomodoros! I think the technique works with the work-break sequence irrespective of time (unless doing 2 minutes work, 1 hour break haha). So glad you have found the timing which works for you!
I think finding the right timings for you is super important! That could be a 10-15 minute break, or working for 45 mins straight - different people have different preferences. Definitely doesn't have to be 25-5 sequence! I now normally do 50 minutes on with 10 minute break but started on 25-5 :)
I need tips and tricks to study effectively... do you have videos you can recommend. I have a series of exams I need to take and I feel like my methods are not very effective

My issue is continuing/ finishing smhlol
I really struggle with the 5-minute break with the Pomodoro timer... I'm using Toggl Track to track my time, and I notice I take 10-15 minute breaks 😅
Same
