I love using `Be Focused`. I recently shifted to a 50-10 window instead of the 25-5, love this technique to get started with anything and almost everything.

That's awesome. Yes, sometimes I end up doing 50-10 windows as well when I'm really getting into the flow of things.

I guess this technique could work with the simple tasks, but I'm not sure whether it is applied to deal with the complex goals.

the opposite. It's amazing for deep work sessions when you are trying to work on something complex and challenging. 25 minutes doesn't mean you will have to finish the whole thing in 25 minutes. It means you can approach the challenging task in 25-min increments. Sometimes, when I'm in the state of flow and am working on a complex task, I just start the next session and work for 50 mins straight.

When i'm working on something challenging, it will take 6-8 pomodoro sessions to get it done.
