The Pomodoro Technique was invented in the 1980s by Francesco Cirillo, founded off the idea that the human brain can only focus on one thing for a limit of 25 minutes before becoming distracted or interested in something else.
Named after the pomodoro tomato shaped timer Francesco Cirillo used, the technique itself is merely the use of a timer to break down your work into 25 minute blocks with five minute breaks in between.
