commute

By now, we all know multitasking doesn’t work. Our brains are incapable of focusing on more than one thing at a time. We might think we’re multitasking as we scan our email while on a conference call, but we’re not. We’re actually switch-tasking – quickly shifting attention from one thing to another and then back again — diluting our focus and losing precious seconds each time we switch. Those seconds add up to many hours of wasted time every week.
