15 Minute Timer
A quarter of an hour works well for a single focused task. The timer is set to 15 minutes. Start it, pause it if you're interrupted, and resume where you left off.
15:00
Ways to use 15 minutes
- A homework or revision block for younger students, followed by a short break.
- Rehearsing a presentation or speech to check that it fits the time you've been given.
- A short rest. Lie down or close your eyes without worrying about oversleeping.
- Planning tomorrow: review your calendar, list priorities, and clear your inbox.
Tips
Pause instead of restarting
If someone interrupts you, press Pause. Resume continues from the exact time left rather than starting over.
Adjust before you start
You can change the minutes or seconds before starting, for example to 12 minutes for a shorter talk.
