Uncovering the Myth of Multitasking

Uncovering the myth of multitasking reveals the truth, we really cannot do two things at the same time. This is what the myth of multitasking is about—we are only one person with only one brain. Neurologically speaking, it has been proven to be impossible.

In Dave's book, The Myth of Multitasking, you will learn that when we speak of multitasking, what we really mean is that we are switchtasking: switching rapidly between one task and another. Yet, each time we switch, no matter how quickly that switch takes place in our mind, there is a cost associated with it. It's an economic term called switching cost—and the switching cost is high. You can learn more about these terms and their effects on productivity through my book, The Myth of Multitasking.
