I just wanted to add to Staffan’s answer by saying that I’ve been applying variations on the Pomodoro method myself for a while, and find consistency in intervals to be more important than the actual length – which I suspect varies from person to person depending on the level of concentration and personality type involved.

Recently, I stumbled across a deliciously simple and useful “Pomodoro” web app which allows for circumventing traditional installation restrictions which may apply in corporate environments, as well as adjusting the intervals for both focus and pause periods. See http://www.magicworkcycle.com.

The only thing I miss is the ability to insert a random pause for quietude into the pattern; I wrote a full post on this which is available here: http://simplicitypost.com/i-hereby-challenge-you-to-10-minutes-of-quietude, but briefly summarized it’s a challenge to make room for 10-minute breaks with the highest possible degree of auditory disconnection.

I’ve introduced the quietude pause into my own regimen since it excels at lowering my stress levels, and also brings my perspective up from the runway level of things and towards the core of my personal goals and principles in the longer term.

Also, I find it relatively easy to slip into distraction/break mode, but to really pause I need to disconnect consciously on a different level since most of my workday is quite busy and fragmented.
