As someone who tries to multitask a lot, this was the idea that struck me the most -
Multitasking isn’t actually a skill you should be proud of, according to neuroscientist Dr. Amishi Jha.
What you're actually doing is what Dr. Jha calls "task switching." And all that does is exhaust your brain and drain your attention system.
