  5. I have been experimenting with the pomodoro technique as a tool for improving my focus while trying to write a scientific paper (with a very short deadline).

    I don't know if I've used it particularly correctly, but I think it does help focus.

  10. @vortex_egg I'll offer a general answer:

    • This is something you should be thinking about constantly.
    • My own problem isn't for want of materials, but for focus in getting through a specific work.
    • (I'm avoiding doing precisely that in answering your toot, BTW....)
    • (No, I'm not blaming you, it's on me.)
    • I try to keep tabs on the works I really want to read.
    • I'm leaning toward having a specific index-card deck that's devoted to this, on the basis that it's 1) physically manifested and 2) can be arbitrarily re-ordered as well as 3) easily supports works being moved to the "it's been read" category.
    • "#BOTI" is another related concept: Best of the Interval. Keep track of what the best books/articles/concepts of the past week/month/year/decade have been. You'll end up with a very highly-curated reading list to recommend to others.
    • Scan both references and citations for promising new material. A reference with an interesting association / concept, or citations of a highly-significant work, are both promising prospects.
    • Mortimer Adler's How to Read a Book, especially the later chapters, is an excellent guide.
    • Consider sources as conversations or interrogations.
    • Have no regrets at bailing from an unrewarding source.

    I'll also look at others' recommendations, reading lists and syllabi, etc. I'm finding with time that individual recommendations and mass-market recommendations are often far less fruitful than the methods above. Subject-matter expert recommendations, on the other hand, especially for older and obscure works, are often gold.

    Much new publication is not much worth reading. The back-catalogue is highly underappreciated.
