Well, let me tell you

something…

The chief characteristic of the

is

Milan

Kundera « It is the form of exstasy that technology has bestowed upon modern man. »

« Addicted to speed, we demand it even when we can’t possibly go faster. »

James Gleick

As a consequence …

53% Waste at least one hour a day due to all types of distractions

45% Of employees work only 15minutes or less without getting interupted

25% Have no time for deep or creative thinking

Isn’t multi-tasking the

key?

Cognitive multi-tasking

DOES NOT

exist

Our brain can process only one task at a time

Our brain gives us the impression that it can process many tasks at the same time while in fact it switches OFF an activity and ON another

Taking the nature of our brain into

consideration, the key would be …

Focusing Your

Attention Into one specific task at a time

Attention

is basically to direct your senses into a specific thing

Attentional control

refers to an individual’s cpaacity to choose what they pay attention to and what they ignore

« The faculty of voluntarily bringing back a wandering attention, over and over again, is the very root of judgment, character, and will. No one is [the master of himself] if he have it

not. »

William James

Stress

Information overload

Other physical factors
