The Pomodoro Technique 
The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s to help students manage their time while studying.The technique uses a timer to break down work into intervals, traditionally 25 minutes in length, separated by short breaks. These intervals are named pomodoros, the plural in English of the Italian word pomodoro (tomato), after the tomato-shaped kitchen timer that Cirillo used as a university student.The method is based on the idea that frequent breaks can improve mental agility. 
This technique can be used for other things besides study. You don't need to use the special timer - any timer will do, even your phone.

If you want to find out more checkout the official Pomodoro website.
