Co-Working Session (Deep Work, all types of work welcome)

About this event

We are trying a new event format on weekday! Event location change: Monk's Brew Club Bring extension cords if you have! Hey everyone! We organising a co-working + socialising session for all of us who like to work on something (e.g. our own project, freelance or remote work) but feel working alone at home can get a bit lonely :-) To ensure that we have both socialising AND working, we will be using the so called “Pomodoro” technique: 50min of deep work (silent), followed by 10min of break to socialise. Then repeat, we typically do up to 3 rounds. It’s an effective way to stay focused - you can read more about it here (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique). Anyone from any background is welcome, whatever project you are working on or whatever is your personal background. ——————————————————- AGENDA: • 15min Intro (please come on time) Get to know everyone, talk about what you will work on today • Pomodoro Session \- 3x \(3h\) Each Pomodoro session consists of 50min of uninterrupted “deep work” (no talking, no interruptions, no phones) -> then 10min of break: share your progress with others, talk about what you are stuck on etc. -> Repeat • Wrap Up, Lunch or Continue Working (optional) Share your progress, socialise and get to know others 😊 ———— Location is Monk’s Brew Club (57 East Coast Road, Singapore 428773). We have booked a separate room with multiple tables at the 2nd floor of the cafe, just walk all the way through to the back when you walk in, or ask the barista. Wifi + power plugs are there but best to bring a fully charged laptop and extension cords, just in case 🙃 You DO NOT have to pay anything, but since we are using the café space, it would be common courtesy to buy at least one drink. Please remember to release your RSVP in case you are not able to make it for the people on the waitlist and looking forward to seeing you there! :) Note: RSVP-ing and then no show will result in penalties: 1 No show = warning 2 No shows = de-prioritized for those in waitlist 3 No shows = blocked from future events Cheers Vicente
