You sit down at your desk, ready to start doing what is in your to-do list. You have an important report to finish, but before you even start, a Slack notification pops up. You check it, just a quick reply, right? Then your phone buzzes. A new email. You open it. Five minutes later, you’ve answered three messages, checked your calendar, and now… what were you supposed to do again? Sound familiar? You may think that multi tasking is productive, but in reality, it’s slowly killing your focus, doubling your workload, and increasing your stress. The worst part? You don’t even realize it’s happening. What your brain feel during multi tasking Cognitive Overload: It is scientifically proven that people, who are multitasking especially with media on background, have a harder time to ignore distractions. They are less efficient at task-switching and have decreased memory performance. Temporary IQ Reduction: Research from the University of London showed that participants who multitasked during cognitive tasks, have lower IQ scores similar to their points after a sleepless night or marijuana use. Increased Stress:Multitasking increases the production of cortisol, the stress hormone, which makes you feel more anxious and overwhelmed. Our brain isn’t designed to cope with different tasks at the same time and it just jumps from task to task and loses focus. That makes you worried that you forgot something and stress level goes up. Lets have a quick test on how good are you at multitasking 🧠 Multitasking Challenge If you struggled, that’s because your brain wasn’t processing both tasks simultaneously. It was switching between them, it led to slower thinking, more mistakes, and mental fatigue. The Secret to Getting More Done? Do Less Sounds strange, right? But what we see: research proves that focusing on ONE task at a time is the real productivity hack. Here’s why: Faster Completion Times Think multitasking helps you work faster? Think again. A study found that single-tasking improves efficiency by up to 50% meaning you’ll finish tasks in half the time. How it works? Imagine trying to cook dinner, answer work emails, and help your kid with homework - all at the same time. Chances are, dinner gets overcooked, emails are full of typos, and your kid is frustrated. But if you tackle each task one by one, everything gets done faster and with better results. 💡 Try This: Fewer Mistakes Ever sent "Love you ❤️" to your boss instead of your partner? Or maybe you scheduled a meeting for the wrong time while trying to text and listen to a conversation? Multitasking divides your attention, making errors way more likely. Single-tasking keeps your brain fully engaged, so mistakes become rare. 💡 Try This: Less stress: Think about the last time you juggled multiple projects at once. Did you feel accomplished or just exhausted? Your brain isn’t built for constant switching. Every time you change tasks, your stress levels increase. 💡 Try This: How to use Hubmee to avoid multitasking It is easy just to tell you in theory how to stop multitasking, but what we all know it is much easier to say than to accomplish.That’s why, we are not just saying but giving you the solution.
