What action makes your brain take four times longer to recognize and process each thing you’re working on when you switch back and forth among several tasks?
Yep – multitasking!
If switch from task to task and it takes you 10 minutes to re-engage each time, you could be losing a whole hour each and every day just switching gears!
Consider, too, that you’re not just losing time; the quality of your work is suffering, too, as your brain is interrupted.
Yep – multitasking!
So each time you hop back and forth, switch gears, do two things at once, and have zero structure in your day, all of your work will take longer than if you had focused on one. thing. at. a. time.
If switch from task to task and it takes you 10 minutes to re-engage each time, you could be losing a whole hour each and every day just switching gears!
Consider, too, that you’re not just losing time; the quality of your work is suffering, too, as your brain is interrupted.
Give yourself – and your brain – a break! Quit yer multi-tasking!
