Thanks for sharing this, Wendy. Sounds like an interesting idea!

I agree! The pomodoro is a powerful way to establish a habit.

I do but I’m on holiday now and don’t have it with me (and can’t remember the name.) Back home this weekend and will post it then.

Do you have a make that you’re happy with?

Aurore, as a trainer you are lucky enough to understand the value of practice! (Musicians fall into the same category.) Writing is no different. You need to safeguard the time for it. I do this by writing first thing in the morning (I don’t get up any earlier than normal to do this; writing is simply the first thing I do.) Actually, now that I think about it, writing is the SECOND thing I do, because I do my back exercises first. I know you want to be fully available to your trainees but if writing is important to you, then I suggest you find a way to work it into your day, first thing, before you become too tired..

I’m on a Mac as well although I’ve never heard of the T-timer, so I don’t know how it operates. One thing I’d urge you to keep in mind is that “noisy” timers (ones that make the tick-tock sound as they operate) are more effective than silent ones.

Thanks for your answer, Daphné!
When you have a big day such as giving a training for 10 hours or travelling a lot and giving conférences, do you still keep your Writting time ?
Actually, I’m a trainer and, sometimes, I have 3 àr 4 days of training per week and it takes me a lot of energy and I just cannot sit and write as I’m exhausted (and before training, I need to concentate to be fully available for my trainees).
I know…It’s an excuse !!
