The Term Multitasking is inhuman: it comes from computer language and describes the ability of an operating system to run several at the same time Tasks to manage something.

Each of these processes access the central brain of the computer, the main processor. This distributes the capacities. But the processes only seem to take place at the same time: They happen one after the other in a flash.

The human brain can only process one process at a time

And if you activate too many processes on the computer, you will feel it: Then the computer is stuck. And we say, again humanizing: "The computer has hung up!" First aid is provided by the Windows Task Manager, for example, which cancels individual processes to create capacity for others.

The human Brain can also only work on one process at the same time, only have one thought. Its capacity always remains the same even if someone starts many processes.

If the ability to concentrate is lost: be careful not to waste time!

Human concentration is like a hose from which a certain amount of water flows: not a drop is lost as long as the hose is directed towards just one bucket. The bucket fills up fast.

But what happens if you want to distribute the water to several buckets at the same time? Each time the tubing changes the bucket, water passes - a loss of spreading. And it takes much longer for the individual buckets to become full; after all, everyone gets only a fraction of the original amount.

The end of the increase in efficiency: Why multitasking always makes you dumber

When we switch from one task to the next, from emailing to telephoning, from texting to conferencing, concentration is lost like water between buckets.

The more often the concentration hose changes the work vessel, the less is left for the individual process. The result: We get less and less baked and we get more and more stupid. Therefore, multitasking is not efficient at all; on the contrary, it always makes you dumber.
