8 Ways to Get an Instant Motivational Boost, Take Action, and Achieve Your Goals (Finally)

1. Use a “Pomodoro technique”

Use the Pomodoro method if you have trouble staying on task. The Pomodoro kitchen timer is the inspiration for this way of managing time.
All you have to do is set a timer for 25 minutes while working on a task and take short breaks of 5 to 10 minutes when it goes off. Do that three times, and then take a longer break of 20 minutes after the third “Pomodoro.” Now, you don’t have to buy the actual timer to try it out. You can find analog apps on the internet that can help you focus on important tasks.
