*Pomodoro (my bad) is simple; focus real hard for 25 minutes, then an alarm tells you to take a break. 5 Minutes later, an alarm tells you to focus real hard again. The main drawback I've found is that I have difficulty interrupting my workflow/train of thought at the buzz of an alarm, often then working through the "break time" to finish a thought or step. Then, I'd have to take a break manually, which makes me lose track of time, so i break for 30 minutes..![]()
Sounds interesting. I'm having a look at it now, but yeah I agree, once I get going with a thought or idea, it's difficult to stop and rest and come back to it. There is merit to the method, but don't think it will work for me personally. Still, it's worth a try.
Bosses friend is a MBA. He got him to buy a Mom and Pop company and they expected it to make big bucks, the thing is a dud, technically bankrupt. Plus he let the guy keep the company bakkie to sell for himself. The MBA said you just need to sell four a month when the previous owner never even sold four a year.
So consequently we now we think that MBA's are poephoels that draw graphs and make problems.
Ah yes, the infamous "I'm an MBA so I know more than you ALWAYS" guy. Unfortunately having the papers of degree doesn't automatically make you an expert or miracle worker, and people with MBA's does tend to let it go to their heads. Sure, you are very well educated in the intricacies of business administration and management, but it does not make you capable of picking up any business off the ground and making it a success. I know of a few MBA's that have failed at business development. It all depends on what you want to do with the degree. People have a very unclear, unhealthy idea of what an MBA should be able to do. That's why the latest entry interviews are way more stringent to weed out people like that.
