Justin Tamsett explains the downfall of trying to multi-task.
esearch has shown that our brain
can’t take in and process two
simultaneous separate streams of
information and encode them fully into
your short term memory.

In fact, only two per cent of the
population are effective multi-taskers,
and for the rest of us, trying to focus on
more than one thing can actually result
in a 40 per cent drop in productivity.
Furthermore, being distracted while
working has been found to lower our IQ
by as much as 10 points, which is the
equivalent to losing one full night’s
sleep!
