Summary

Analyze keywords

“All of my power is focused on my task; there are no distractions.”

Concentrating your mind and getting into a period of deep focus will make the effort and time that go into your tasks more effective. It will allow you to 'get in the zone', freeing your mind of distractions until your entire body, mind and soul become engrossed into the work.

Nucleus provides a simple, but effective UI to manage these periods of focus and relaxation. Nucleus is based on the Pomodoro technique for time management. When faced with any large task or series of tasks, break the work down into short, timed intervals (called 'Pomodoros') that are spaced out by short breaks. This allows you to immerse your mind, and get good work done.

Nucleus also includes the ability to block distracting websites so you can stay focused on your work.

Find you center.

I think this needs the option to block all sites and then have a whitelist. Some people may just need to block out a couple places, but for me, the internet is too full of distracting places to go to: news, social media, etc. I need to allow sites in.
