You're so right - it's actually pretty amazing what can really be gotten through in 25 minute bursts. I love this approach. I use a timer on my work computer to help me because I tend to jump around and can use this to make it through my more tedious tasks and still give myself time to take little breaks throughout the day and shift gears between multiple things.
This is just what I needed to hear! I'm in an online accountability group where we set goals every week, and I had no ideas for goals, but also, separately, kept remembering little 5 minute tasks (reschedule doctor's appointment, buy gift I'd already picked out, etc) that were haunting me but I kept forgetting to do. Boom - goal for the week was kill the little tasks!
