I too have found the Pomodoro Technique fantastic, especially when combined with a GTD-like list of tasks for the day, broken down as atomically as they can be.

I too have found the Pomodoro Technique fantastic, especially when combined with a GTD-like list of tasks for the day, broken down as atomically as they can be. It's really helped me get through some of the most mundane work I've had to do on almost no real deadline (which is completely toxic to productivity), where I was the least inspired to work. As a bonus, it helps make the workday pass very quickly, as you tend to focus on the current Pomodoro, instead of think about all the hours ahead of you.
