Multitasking actually is less productive,
I do agree that multitasking in some cases are because it slows down your process and unproductive and dangerous. But with little allows you to make more errors than normal. things like texting and working out, cooking and singing, those things seem really harmful and can save lots of time on really time demanding tasks The brain loses its capability for deep thinking altogether
I see this sometimes when Im trying to do my
homework and watch a show or listen to music. My mind doesnt want to do two things at once and it forces me to stop one thing and focus on the other.
Your brain also wasnt programed to do
more than one thing at once, so it has a hard time competing all these things at once.
I think multitasking is a great to get some
simple things done, but not when youre trying to do difficult stuff. Driving and texting is dangerous and should always be avoided. People shouldnt for that because it not only puts them in danger but also every one else on the road.
It actually does the exact opposite in what
people intend for it to do, its unproductive and can hurt you.
I dont agree with the mind only being
capable of doing one thing at a time, I think were more advanced than that, I believe because of our society people are going to get better and better at it.
