Multitasking Is Not Forever Good

Women always called more powerful than men, among others, because it has multitasking capabilities. At home, for example, you could wash clothes while cooking and watching television. Or do the report, child care, while occasionally contact your colleagues.

However, multitasking was not always good. Unnecessary we talking about driving while phoning or sending an SMS. Multitasking in a mild level too, such as calling a friend while sending e-mails to clients, it was not as efficient as we believe.

However, our brains have cognitive limitations. We may just think that we are able to do two things at the same time, but our brains were trying hard to understand two of these events.

We also become less efficient after we close the e-mails at once off the phone. In experiments, a group of students required to spend 30 minutes simultaneously to compile playlists of music, chat, and write a short paper. The second group focuses on each of these activities, each for 10 minutes. After that, they were given a memory test. From this experiment proved, single tasker work significantly better than the multitasker.

Some great evidence suggests that the brain works better when performing tasks in sequence rather than doing all along. Your concentration will split every time you change activities. Its still not know what the long-term effects of chronic multitasking action, but that multitasking a bad influence on us, no question anymore. Multitasking is expected to slow the already long and wounded mind.

Even so, it is still possible to improve your ability to concentrate. There are several ways to do it, among others, by practicing yoga, acupuncture, or consult on expert management.
