I bought a book, basically because it was a GTD technique that came off the pragmatic bookshelf so I figured I’d give it a shot. Explanation: To give a very brief explanation of the technique. You have a sheet with Today’s Todos, each time you do 25 minutes of work towards your todos you mark a ‘pomodoro’ and take a 5 minute break. You then clock up pomodoros everyday. Then every morning you pick from your \\activity inventory\\(an unsorted list of todos), and pick the highest priority tasks, beside each task should be an estimate of how many pomodoros it should take. For exampleI had estimated 2pomdoros for this blog post. So when selecting your pomodoros for the day you take your pomodoro average (sum of all the pomodoros you’ve ever done divided by the number of days), and don’t add more estimated pomodoros than your averages. So for example my average could be 11 and I could have 3 high priority tasks each estimated to take 5 pomodoros each, well clearly I would have to add 2 and find a third that only took 1 pomodoro. ...
