Beyond Pomodoro: use Maclock for meeting & presentation countdowns (and keep the rhythm)

Timing doesn’t have to feel like pressure. A visible countdown can be a gentle boundary that helps everyone wrap up cleanly.

Countdowns aren’t pressure — they’re predictability

Meetings drift when rhythm disappears: one person talks long, others wait, and the ending gets rushed.

A countdown works best when it’s shared and calm. Put it on the desk, keep it visible, and let it quietly guide the pace.

When time is visible, finishing on time becomes a team effort.

Three small tips for friendlier timing

  • Use it as a gentle signal: it’s not “hurry up”, it’s “save room for the ending”.
  • Place it in your peripheral vision: fewer window switches, less mental clutter.
  • Leave a 1–2 minute buffer: Q&A and interruptions won’t break the whole session.
