The twelve monotasks : do one thing at a time to do everything better / Thatcher Wine.

Summary:

Neurological research repeatedly concludes that there is a bottleneck in our cognitive function - when we do more than one thing at a time, we become less efficient and more errorprone. In fact, we are wired to monotask - to give dedicated focus to one task at a time. In 'The Twelve Monotasks', Thatcher Wine breaks down 12 everyday activities to strengthen our monotasking muscle so that we can rebuild and expand our attention spans. And in the end, it makes us happier, more productive, and more present - in all aspects of our lives.
