multitasking = brain damage (?!?)
from Betta Bullets: Living from the Inside Out Hosted by betta
i used to swear by multitasking. from the moment i woke to the minutes before i fell asleep, i prided myself with my ability do to multiple things at once. this practice that was once seen as the ultimate productivity practice is now being revealed as one that actually is not only hindering your productivity BUT ALSO could be causing brain damage... say whaaaattt??! in this episode, i share several academic studies supporting the idea that not multi-tasking is actually the way to go. ______________ References: Yeung, N. & Monsell, S.
