Helping You Study (Pomodoro Technique)

Working towards my bachelors in kinesiology, I think you may have saved my ADD having ass! Been having a right awful time with retaining.

Real talk... This suggestion helped me big time. I've been using this at work and for school. Thanks!

Maybe you just saved my exam session, thank you !

I enjoyed the blend of humour, mischief and genuine tips for tackling procrastination.👏 When you said "it's a very, very mad world" my mind went straight to Gary Jules (sorry Tears for Fears!) "All around me are familiar faces Worn out places, worn out faces Bright and early for the daily races Going nowhere, going nowhere..."

I've been dragging my feet on some doctoral work tomorrow. Perfect timing and technique to ease me into this assignment. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Oh man, that’s rough - good luck!

Good luck! 🤗

I have been working on my Pharmacy Tech License. I think this will help

Jenice Coffey

Thank you for sharing this method! Your ringtones have also come in handy when I’m taking a break, they’re a nice treat - like candy ☺️

I'll put this technique to use the next time I'm studying. Very helpful. I was wondering if you have an audio on procrastination. I will search for it later...see what mean😕If I had an Irish massage waiting I might get something done.

this is here at the perfect time as I sail through week 5 of my new semester for masters while trying to complete the resubmission of my failed assignment. thanks G! 🤗

You’re an absolute angel 🥺💖

Now, I'm Italian, I'm a university student and apparently I live in ProcrastiNation, I could easily be the mayor there. I knew about this method but I honestly didn't know about the pomodoro thing ahah. Just wanted to say that these types of audios are the fuel i need when I want to cry the soul out of me in front of my books before an exam. So THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH. Then, I wanted to say that getting to hear you speak Italian (although it was just the name of the guy and pomodoro) has totally recharged me and made me smile, so thank you again. Also, since I study cinema I LOVED the reference to the 4th wall. You got me laughing and screaming there. Please, do this more often. I loved it. 'Kay, going to study again.

Where were you when I was in college? I love this

This might actually help me with my ADHD. You said it, it's all about tricking the brain! Thanks a lot, a chara :)

Delphine (half French half mad)

really needed to hear that it's not my fault cause the guilt of procrastinating uni work has been a pain in the ass , oh and thanks for the tea recommendation haha

Very interesting, I hadn’t heard of this technique before! I’m willing to give it a try! 🙌🏼🍅⏱🥰

The timing was amazing, really. Thank you so much 😭💞

I'm a permanent resident of Procrasti-nation 🤪 But for you I'll trade my coffee for some Barry's but I may need to cook pasta later with tomato sauce 😂 I'll definitely try this when I have a long translation project! This put me in a good mood and made me smile🥰

Your tags are absolutely correct: this audio was sweet, encouraging and uplifting. Thank you for giving me good Wednesday feelings, Gaelie !! 💗🥰

you have the best timing ever

That reminded me of a similar video you did on YouTube years ago it was a huge help when I was in college never failed to motivate me to get back to studying ❤️❤️ this one is great for all of us procrastinators 😂 thank you so much for your audios and your work (esp sleep audios/ anxiety / comforting /meditation audios) super grateful ! and I cannot believe that A few minutes I spend listening to your audios has changed my life and my mindset in such an Amazing positive way THANK YOU SO MUCH G!

I'm all up for the Pomodoro method, but by golly if there won't be an Irish masseuse next to me after my fourth Pomodoro I'm filing an official complaint ;-)

I’ve been making dumb mistakes at work all day and the tag is concentration. 🤣🤦🏼‍♀️

So the tomato you shared on Twitter is for the Pomodoro Timer and I thought something to do with a lil ketchup 😅😄.. Close...... not!!! 🤭😂 Very helpful and uplifting audio! I think I'll use the same technique while working as well! And you sounded too adorable! Makes one really wanna go study just for the sake of the personal masseuse 🥰🥰💕💕

*4th wall break* you had me rolling with rory lyon🦁 I think I used that on every one I could today. Rory lyon 💓😆 Wonders what you're studying. Thanks for the timer and info, you're so smart. So supportive. I just wrapped up my associates in human services last spring. I am proud of myself. I just couldn't focus to start back yet with the state of the world. But I have full intent to continue on maybe counseling or social services. And in my time. I will never not be entertaining in some way. But I want to help people. Just a goal I have ya know. You are precious ❤️ * I don't think anyone is focusing on a task with you doing pushups.. or kisses or massages! * You would become the task. Anyway sorry see unfocused...better start my timer and get doing my own pushups...💪. Best of luck smarty-pants.

This is so useful! Thank you!🤓🤗❤ I like that song, btw.👀🎶❤

I’ve used this technique successfully in the past, but I’m missing the massage sooo I’ll be waiting.....patiently......(taps finger tips on desk) anytime now......😘😘😘

Oh goodness, you are too cute with your 4th wall break. And you sound so relaxed and familiar. Love this.

But I like the distractions. 🤣 This is actually really helpful right now.

Ooohhh, it was this kind of tomato in the tweet! 😘😘😘 "You got the brain, you got the skills", I was able to imagine that in a ringtone, you know in one of those uplifting you can do it-kinds ♥😊 This was just what the doctor ordered 😅 I just started those irish gaelic studies and there's loads&loads of information entering my brain 😅🍀 Or atleast trying very hard 🙈😂 I loved this, smiling so widely here right now, thank you ♥♥♥*muah*

Perfect for my italian studies! Thanks for introducing me to this technique G! Yes, I will totally take the massage breaks from the well known Irish lad! 🔔😘

Tahmaddas. 😂🤣

Catherine

Procrastination joke 🤣

Oooh thank you so much for this. I'm working through my assignments for my masters and I love listening to this kind of thing for relaxation. I'm a super panicky person and this is just a god send

Emma

Oh my god thank you so much for this! I have final exams and I’m also working 30 hours this week. I’m trying to get more than 4 hours of sleep and drink less coffee 😂 but your voice is also so soothing and encouraging, G 💗

I was actually just about to start reading a chapter for class that ive been dreading, perfect timing🥺🖤

Just what I need. Midterms are driving me nuts! Thank you Gael. You’re an angel! ✨🥺❤️

WHAT THE ENTIRE SHIT!!! I JUST started using the pomodoro method this week. How...how...** brain short-circuits and powers down** Idk how you knew but you’re a sneaky devil, you are.

Dude! Get out of my brain! My daughter is home from college on break and she’s been working with my 15 year old daughter and using the Pomodoro technique. I hadn’t heard of it until 2 days ago. She uses a timer and everything. Which reminds me.... time for more Barry’s!

You are officially a saint and mind reader on top of that. This came in at the puuuurfect time! 😁

Yay! I can't wait to listen.
