I always want to keep myself updated with new technology especially in cars, and want to add new skills to my learnings. But i often fail to finish what i started. After so many failures I discovered this 5mins technique.

There were times I am caught with personal works and loose focus or interest in doing things I always wanted to do. So, i thought i will try this technique for one iteration and see how it works for me.

what is this 5mins technique?

I picked up one thing that I wanted to learn or do out of interest or passion. I made sure I spent min of 5mins time on that task in a day without fail. Thats the starting point. When you start doing it 5mins ,it is not only 5mins but it is more than that.

How did this 5mins worked for me?

Min 5mins is the stigma that i created for myself. So the days when i am busy I dedicate min 5mins, or the days i loose interest also i use min 5mins. and other days i end up spending some hours after the starting time of 5mins.

Being all said, there were days when i loose interest. But this time i asked my friends about this situation and i got this wonderful input. That if you dont focus on your learnings you will loose all the progress you have made so far. That stuck and which really helped me. So this is my Pomodoro technique which worked good for me.
