There are six steps in the
Pomodoro Technique:
Decide on the task to be done.
• Set the timer to 25 minutes.
• Work on the task until the timer rings. If a distraction pops
into your head, write it down, but immediately get back
on task.
• When the timer rings, take 5 minutes break – and move!
• After 3 or 4 sessions of 25 minutes, take a longer break of
15–30 minutes.

Second, sleep itself has a role in the consolidation of
memory, which is essential for learning new information.
