FAQ
Is Pomodoro 25 minutes always best?
Not always. 25/5 works for many people, but 15/5 can help you start, and 40/10 can work better when you need longer immersion.
How do I make Pomodoro stick?
Make it easy: keep the timer open, pick the next task before you start, and aim for consistency over perfection.
