Focus Time Planner

Turn a task-time estimate into focus blocks and a simple schedule.

About the Focus Time Planner

Split a total task estimate into manageable focus blocks with breaks between them.

How to use it

  1. Enter task time, block length and break length.
  2. Optionally enter a start time.
  3. Calculate blocks, breaks and schedule length.

Formula

Block count rounds task time divided by block length upward. Break count is one fewer than block count.

Example

A 150-minute task in 45-minute blocks needs four blocks and three breaks.

Notes

The final block may be shorter because the planner preserves the entered total task minutes.
