What are Focus Sprints?

Focus sprints are short, intense work sessions, typically 25 minutes long, during which you focus entirely on a single task. These sprints form the foundation of the Pomodoro Technique, allowing for heightened concentration and minimal distractions.

Why Use Focus Sprints?

Focus sprints help reduce mental fatigue and procrastination by providing clear time limits for work. They promote a high level of focus while ensuring regular breaks to refresh the mind.

How to Implement Focus Sprints

Set a timer for 25 minutes and commit to working solely on one task. Avoid distractions during this period. Once the timer rings, take a 5-minute break before starting the next sprint.
