Multitasking Doesn’t Work. Here’s How It Affects Your Wellbeing

Posted in Healthy Living Image

Today, we just want to tell you that multitasking is a scam.

Yes, we said it, multitasking is overrated, and if you don’t believe us, here are some surprising ways it can make you less efficient than you should be

1. You’re not really multitasking

What you call multitasking is really task-switching. Why? Moving back and forth between several tasks wastes productivity because your attention keeps shifting and you never get fully “in the zone” for either activity.

2. It slows you down

Contrary to popular belief, multitasking doesn’t save time. In fact, it will probably take you longer to finish two projects when you’re jumping back and forth than it would to finish each one separately. The same is true even for behaviours as seemingly automatic as driving.

What tends to save the most time is to do things in batches. Pay your bills all at once, then send your emails all at once. Each task requires a specific mindset, and once you get in a groove you should stay there and finish.

3. It stresses you out

When researchers measured the heart rates of employees with and without constant access to office email, they found that those who received a steady stream of messages stayed in a perpetual “high alert” mode with higher heart rates.

4. You’ll miss out on life

People who are busy doing two things at once don’t even see obvious things right in front of them. This is called “inattentional blindness,” saying that even you’re physically present in a place, a lot of what’s happening isn’t actually registering in your brain.

5. It affects your memory

It makes sense that if you try to do two things at once—read a book and watch television, for example—that you’re going to miss important details of one or both. This is enough to disrupt short term memory.

6. Your relationships will suffer too

Multitasking has a much bigger effect than most people realize here. Imaging a couple having a serious conversation only for the husband to keep checking his phone. Then the wife does the same and communication just shuts down.”

7. It can make you overeat

Being distracted during mealtime can prevent your brain from fully processing what you’ve eaten. Because of that, you won’t feel as full, and may be tempted to keep eating—and to eat again a short time later.

8. It can be risky

Texting or talking on a cell phone, even with a hands-free device, is as dangerous as driving drunk—yet that doesn’t stop many adults from doing it, even while they have their own children in the car. People who keep using their phones while walking are on this table too.

9. It dampens creativity

Multitasking requires a lot of what’s known as “working memory,” or temporary brain storage, in layman’s terms. And when working memory is all used up, it can take away from our ability to think creatively.

10. It affects your ability to OHIO

No, not the state! Psychiatrists and productivity experts often recommend OHIO: Only Handle It Once for many people with ADHD but it can also be practiced by anyone who wants to be more organized. It basically means if you take something on, don’t stop until you’ve finished it.

If you are reading this article/testimony, just read and decides to believe of not but I'm glad I did all I did. I am writing anonymously because I chose to remain anonymous and share this with you all. You want to win the lottery and you hope to be lucky anytime soon?. No! Remember that, Spirituality and money go hand in hand. Inner-weath and outer-weath compliment each other's. I am not sure if anyone has actually won millions in the lottery by luck. Do not waste your time on hoping to get lucky soon. I won the Lottery twice, 18million dollars and 24million dollars respectively. Not because I was lucky but because I knew the Spirituality of money. With the help of Dr Ozigidon spell, winning the lottery became so clear for me. I read an article on a blog about this powerful Spell caster, Dr Ozigidon. I reached out to him and pleaded for his help to win the lottery. I did all that was required of me for the spell and he did a powerful spell that helped me won 18million dollars and few months later I won 24million dollars. If you actually dream and wish to change your life with the Lottery I would urge you all to contact Dr Ozigidon for his undisputed powerful Spell and you will be grateful for a day like this. Reach him via Telegram: @OzigidonSpell Email: drozigidonhenz.spell.net@gmail.com WhatsApp +2349054750112 I am glad I was able to do this and help others out there. I wish you all well.

You can get your ex back and cure your infertility problems with Dr. Odunga When I met Dr. Odunga, my husband had divorced me because I was a barren woman of 41 and I have been married for 21 years. I was devastated and confused as a woman of my age until I went online to look for help on how to get my marriage back then I met Dr. Odunga. Within 48 hours of contacting him, my ex husband came back home and pleaded for me to forgive him and take him back after 5 months of divorce. I accepted him back and then I told Dr. Odunga of my bareness for him to help me. He did the spell for fertility and after 48 hours of completing it, I conceived. My husband got me pregnant and I gave birth to a baby girl. Presently, I am a mother of a beautiful baby girl and I am happy in my relationship. This is all thanks to Dr. Odunga and his wonderful work. Contact Dr. Odunga Via Whats-App number +2348167159012. Email at: odungaspelltemple@gmail.com

Hello everyone, I want to share my life testimony on how Dr Kala brought my ex back to me, My boyfriend and I had an argument which led to us fighting, he packed his things and moved out of the house and told me he will never be with me again. I could not stand the chance of losing him and I went to beg him to come back home and he refused. I was going through some relationship tips online and I saw a comment on how Dr Kala helped to stop divorce and restore broken relationships. I quickly contacted Him and explained my problem to him and he told me he is going to get my ex boyfriend back to me with the power of love spell. He cast the spell for me and after 2days i started seeing results. My boyfriend called me and begged me to forgive him for the pains he has caused me and he returned back home to me and his son...Today my family is back again and we are happily living together. With the help of Dr Kala my happiness was restored and my boyfriend came back to me.
