News Topical, Digital Desk : Imagine, you've just attended a call, cooked dinner, sent an email, and then checked your phone while eating lunch. You might be thinking, "Wow! I accomplished so much in such a short time." You might even be proud of your speed and efficiency.
But wait! What you consider "success" is actually "slow suicide." Yes, according to Dr. Tarang Krishna, your brain simply can't handle this rush and overload. In this article, let's understand how the habit of multitasking can be detrimental to mental health (Effects of Multitasking on the Brain).
What does Stanford's research say?
According to Stanford research, multitasking reduces your productivity by up to 40%. Our brains are designed to focus on only one thing at a time. When we divide our attention, our mental energy leaks and gets wasted.
It has dangerous effects on health
The truth is that multitasking severely exhausts and overloads your brain. This mental fatigue (chronic fatigue) repeatedly weakens your immune system. When the immune system becomes out of balance, the seeds of serious diseases like cancer are sown in the body. Therefore, it can also be called a kind of 'slow suicide.'
Follow the 20-minute formula
According to the doctor, the solution to this problem is simple: focus on one task at a time. Set a timer for 20 minutes and set a single goal.
