Pomodoro

This is a Shortcut for the Pomodoro


Description

Timer for the Pomodoro time management technique. Originally created by /u/osnipassos and tweaked by /u/bradart, /u/redv1ew und u/lentys. Original shortcut can be found here: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/115378903bd9482987c3c7a6af7b8bdd and through this reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/shortcuts/comments/9jm2wu/any_tip_for_making_a_pomodoro_timer_shortcut/

There are six steps in the original technique:

  1. Decide on the task to be done.
  2. Set the pomodoro timer to 25 minutes
  3. Work or better complete on the task
  4. End work when the timer rings and put a checkmark on a piece of paper
  5. If you have fewer than four checkmarks, take a short break (5 minutes), then go to step 2.
  6. After four pomodoros, take a longer break (30 minutes), reset your checkmark count to zero, then go to step 1.

From the original shortcut-Post: The stages of planning, tracking, recording, processing and visualizing are fundamental to the technique. In the planning phase, tasks are prioritized by recording them in a "To Do Today" list. This enables users to estimate the effort tasks require.

My changes: - asks for a new or existing task everytime a 25 minute iteration starts - changed short breaks to 5 minutes - added my LaunchCuts tags (can be removed) - added Things and Drafts to my personal version
