Hi Jeffrey – I have struggled with exactly the same issues with transcription. When I’m doing them, I find myself getting excited and motivated and I love hearing the interviews again. But I found it really difficult to get motivated to actually get started. I had heard of the pomodoro technique but hadn’t really seen how it could work. But I decided to download the app (probably one day when I was procrastinating from actually doing any transcription!) and to my surprise it has worked a treat! I set myself a very small goal of doing one pomodoro a day to complete my transcriptions. Yep, a tiny 25 mins a day. But it worked because by using such small amounts of time, I felt ok about starting, and then more often than not I would get involved in the process and do two or three in a row. It got me through the transcription process, now to do what you’re doing and go back and listen again, do corrections etc…
