The Perils Of Multitasking
We all have limited time and unlimited things to do, and we try to juggle between work, personal projects, self-care and our social life. As we try to focus on what matters the most, we get in the web of complexities that come from managing a lot of important and competing tasks.
- If we only focus on a single task, our responsiveness towards the demands of the world suffers.
- If we are available to all and extremely responsive to what they need from us, our own progress suffers.

The Origin Of 'Multitasking'
The word ‘multitask’ is actually a computer term invented by IBM in 1965, showcasing how a computer chip can handle multiple tasks at the same time.

The Steps Of Mindful Context Switching
- Defining your level of responsiveness based on the kind of work being done.
- Design a realistic ‘chunk’ of work that is meaningful and feels like progress. Breaking down your work into chunks makes it easier and is a modular approach to the tasks at hand.
- Ensure that you plan your work calendar based on the broken-down chunks of work.
- Ensure you communicate your response times to others.
- Review your calendar and improvise on your workweek.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
