A gentle starting ritual

Use the interval to protect attention, not to race the clock

The familiar 25-minute timer is a useful entry point. The complete technique also includes planning, handling interruptions, recording effort and learning from each cycle.

01
Choose one clear outcome
Write a task small enough to move during one focused interval.
02
Start and protect the interval
Put avoidable distractions aside; note interruptions instead of chasing them.
03
Stop when the timer ends
Take the break seriously. Stand, breathe, drink water or let your attention reset.
04
Review, then begin again
After several focuses, take a longer break and adjust the durations to fit your work.
