The Working Hard, Not Smart Myth

1. The Working Hard, Not Smart Myth We constantly wonder why communication in today's environment is so difficult. It is probably time to reconsider the "cool" multitasking approach and do one thing at a time and do it right--with focus. When communicating with another person, or a group, it is highly recommended to focus 100% on that person. In my view the exchange will be more effective, quicker, on a higher quality level, create better results and can be considered more respectful and satisfying. Outside of the realm of communication the results of multitasking are similarly questionable. The experience proves that multitasking slows down the actual achievement of results and reduces significantly the quality of the output. In other words we tend to produce "bad" work at a slower pace. Focus on this. Our scattered minds, I've read somewhere, process something in the region of fifty thousand thoughts every day. That's fairly spread out and assuming a waking day of sixteen hours, makes on average, in the region of three thousand one hundred and twenty five thoughts every hour. We may think we are focussed when we watch television for example, because the passive act of watching sends our brainwaves into an alpha state. But this is not always so. Since the alpha state is conducive to absorbing huge amounts of information subconsciously the media quite understandably makes good use of this to bombard us with intermittent advertisements, shattering our concentration and sending our thoughts in all directions. Most of us cannot focus unaided, on one thing for more than three minutes. Similarly it is impossible to focus fully on more than one thing at a time. Try these two simple exercises to see how good your focus is. https://supplementsbureau.com/no-bs-manifesting-course-review/ http://wedidreviewforyou.com/no-bs-manifesting-course-review/ https://nomorescamreviews.com/no-bs-manifesting-course-review/
