 In reality, the situations are oftentimes fluid and sub-optimal. It’s hard to be truly distraction-free during the pomodoro times. There are always notifications, email alerts, and some other stuff (sometimes, having multiple screens is not necessarily a good thing) that may want your attention. For me, I also practice end-of-day *Inbox Zero*[^fn4] at work, so it takes great discipline[^fn5] not to read an email right away - red dots and unattended notifications do bother me a bit. To help reduce the risks of potential interruptions, you can always set up calendar blocks, snooze notifications, and/or wear a noise-cancelling headset, etc. So adjust accordingly!
 
-Oh, and one more thing. If you’re old-school, or simply don't want the hassle of apps (I get it, even software professionals don’t necessarily like apps), you can always spend a few bucks getting an hourglass or a real kitchen timer where this technique originated from. Alternatively, as a pro tip, some timepieces do come with a timer that can immediately help with this situation. For instance, the iconic Rolex Submariner has a rotating bezel that gives you up to 60-minute countdowns, which makes it perfect for Pomodoro practices. The only catch is, you may need to budget slightly more than you’d for a kitchen timer (and perhaps getting on a wait list first). Here, putting on my Don Draper hat, I even came up with an original tagline for Rolex (disclaimer: *this isn’t a sponsored post.

 [^fn3]: At times, much like marriage vows, we might end up committing to a task with a potentially open-ended scope and vague requirements. Yes, I know, it's a lame joke. :D
 [^fn4]: A term coined by Merlin Mann, *Inbox Zero* is an email strategy by which the goal is to always keep your inbox 100% empty. There are some big benefits to this: Everything is always handled, and you don’t waste time re-reading an email for the third time before actually taking action.

 [^fn5]: I proud myself for being a disciplined and organized person, but in retrospect, sometimes I probably take it too far to an unhealthy level. My wife also accused me oftentimes when I plan a vacation trip, I tend to arrange things back-to-back and follow them too rigorously, so much so that we'd need another vacation from that regimented vacation.. So yea, occasionally dialing it back a bit might do you good.
