XNote Stopwatch

I downloaded XNote Stopwatch and set it for two hour stretches. I try to get as much done within that time then take a little break, reset and start again. It has helped me. I still have days where motivation is a problem now and then but not as much.

I use a stopwatch but I'd rather have a chess timer!
Makes a real difference for me!
