How Focus-To-Do Helps You Stay on Task and Boost Productivity

Do you ever have trouble staying focused and being productive during the day? I feel you. Between a numbers of unread notifications, and the temptation to scroll endlessly on social media, it can be so hard to actually get stuff done sometimes!

But I discovered a couple tools that have been total game changers for me - the Focus To-Do app and something called the Pomodoro technique. Let me break it down for you!

Focus To-Do is a super simple to-do list and task manager app. It lets you add tasks, set due dates and reminders, and organize your to-dos into lists and projects. There's also a handy "focus mode" that blocks out all distractions so you can really zero in. Pretty sweet!

Now onto the Pomodoro technique! Don't worry, it's not some wild new TikTok dance or Italian cooking method. Pomodoro actually means tomato in Italian (fun fact!). The technique was created by an Italian man named Francesco Cirillo back in the 80s.

Here's the gist - you set a timer for 25 minutes and focus intensely on one task during that time. No distractions allowed! Then when the timer goes off, you take a 5 minute break to stand up, stretch, grab some water, etc. Your brain needs that recess!

Once the 5 minutes is up, you go for another productive 25-minute "Pomodoro session", then take another break. And so on until you get stuff done!


I've started combining these two and it's worked wonders! Here's my new flow:

  • In the morning, I map out my to-do list in Focus To-Do and set reminders. Gets me prepared and ready!
  • When I start working on a task, I set a 25-minute Pomodoro timer. It's heads down focus mode until that sucker rings!
  • Then I take a little 5 minute break to recharge before the next 25 minute Pomodoro.
  • This rhythm of focused bursts + quick breaks helps me plow through tasks without losing steam.

Give it a try the next time you're feeling distracted or bogged down! Let me know if you have any other favorite tips for staying productive.

Oh FocusToDo , why must you tease me so? With location reminders and fancy filters always out of reach. I'm but a humble free user, Condemned to a lackluster existence. Give me a taste of the life that could be mine! Just one tiny upgrade... But no, I must resist temptation. The life of a free user is not an easy one, But I shall persevere!

Now if you'll excuse me, my Pomodoro just went off which means it's time for a walk and a much needed chocolate break!
