Do you find yourself multitasking more but getting less done?
Take a moment and pay attention to what you’re doing right now. Do you have Slack open while you’re composing an email? Are you scrolling through social media while you’re listening to this episode? One of the most frequent questions I get asked is how I maintain my focus in a world full of distractions.
In today’s episode, I’m going to share a few Kwik Tips on how you can harness your focus and sharpen your ability to concentrate on one thing at a time.
Many people feel a constant pressure to get more done in less time. But research shows that multitasking doesn’t result in more productivity, and it can actually cost you time and money instead.
If you often feel inundated with tasks and aren’t sure how to embrace the benefits of monotasking, this episode is for you.

Hello Sir ❤️ Can you please explain what are the pros and cons of Pomodore technique and Flow State ?! Some people say that pomodore technique kills Flow State .. Thanks 🙏

@JacquelineStCyr-ql3ij Год назад

I love seeing this info because I have for many years tried to convince my bosses and co-workers that multitasking was not the best thing to practice. The corporate world really implemented and drove this new concept to combine employee positions back in th 80's when desktop computers became the new tool for secretaries turning into admin assistants. I burned out from multitasking because I serviced 5 different departments back then. This is a high level brain stressor for work and home. Thank you so much for calling atention to multitasking and introducing monotasking!💯💖

I needed to hear this today. I feel overwhelmed and it comes partially from multi-tasking! STOP IT! Thank you Jim!

Cons of Multitasking 1. Costing valuable Time 2. Higher chance of making Mistakes 3. Drains a lot more Energy 4. Put strains on working Memory How to stop Multitasking (External/Internal) 1. Make less distractions in the environment (External) 2. Are you spreading your retention *No Two Cognitive activities but you can have two physical activities 3. Self-Talk

@Nicky-ez3ln 11 месяцев назад

I think he's saying you can't do two cognitive activities but you can do one physical activity and cognitive activity like working out and listening to music.

This video is about much more than just multitasking, such a valuable information here. You could literally replay this 3x in a row and every time you would learn something new.

@christianfischer9971 Год назад

Thank you for sharing! I love your book, LIMITLESS! Im journaling everyday, taking notes. And learning! I love the stories and metaphors you share! I have a coworker, who tonight was talking about his learning disabilities, and how he sometimes struggles. I spoke with him for a few minutes, and reminded him not to put that label on him, because he’s limiting his abilities. And that he’s capable of learning anything, and as fast as he wants. We all have a genius inside. We just have to learn to embrace and unleash the genius within. I’m thankful for opportunities to share your stories and your book, and how much it’s helping me. I love seeing people overcome their obstacles and watch them grow.

Jim your content has and continues to change my life. Thank you once again 🙏🏽

@sammyalabamy111 Год назад

Love your T-shirt that says "I MISS MY PRE-INTERNET BRAIN". So true, too much internet and social media, makes one miss out on life out there, looking down at the phone while walking, miss seeing the birds fly and be free, the beautiful blue sky, seeing people and surroundings.... missed Moments in Time.

@marjesargado4664 Год назад

Thanks to you sir Jim I now back on giving time to read everyday to improve my brain because it seems that the older I get the little knowledge my brain have.

@AkuoSubliminals 11 месяцев назад

I think this is an important message, thanks for sharing. I would even say that working out and listening to a podcast or video is still detrimental. Sounds controversial however there is no difference between the physical and cognitive. Multitasking between the two robs your brain of the chance to focus on one thing. In this instance a person is still selling out to boredom and the need for more stimulation. You may think you are saving time but over the long term, it may tell a different story as fat as retention of quality time spent doing whatever activity or listening to whatever content. Being satisfied and being happy with one thing at a time is a gift. Something i'm still learning about but the more that you practice just literally just do one thing at a time the easier it will be when it really matters with things like work (hard work and easy work). The more one practices the opposite the easier it is to escape and to avoid things like work all together or the more it makes work uncomfortable.

I recently started a new job a Supply Chain Manager, and I am contemplating quitting because they are too many tasks to handle at once. Watching this video has opened up my mind and made me realize I have been trying to multitask and not monotasking. Hopefully with this in mind I’ll be able to get more done and stop the thoughts of quitting.

@pauxtukas Год назад

Thank you so much I really needed to hear this ☺️ I’m working on my concentration and memory and I’ve noticed that during my day chores I’m not aware of me and I kinda loose my self in everything and I feel overwhelmed at the of the day. Also started meditation and relaxation and it helps me easier to fall asleep. Still long road to go… thinking to apply mono tasking

Hey Jim! Thanks for sharing with us this useful information! Now I recognise that I usually cooking and talking with someone by phone at the same time, it really become a habit! I’m curious about listening podcasts while doing physical exercises is it ok to run in the morning for example and listen some podcasts? Why this is not multitasking? And what about walking to destination point?is it ok to listen podcast while walking? Because I’m feeling like I’m not at present moment at this time. Thanks for answer and have a good day!

@slimbejaoui614 Год назад

That’s awesome 👏, what about if we have many tasks that we need to accomplish, is it correct to do it one day 1 task??

@selinawinestein4861 Год назад

I am forever multitasking……this makes so much sense because I forget a lot when I’m doing too much and it just confirms what my partner has been saying to me all along……lol. I’m not telling him he was right tho…..😂😂 female pride 😂

@Conquer.Autism. Год назад

I am mom of an autistic kid, so I always thought that multitasking is important for me. Most of the time I feel drained and tired.I feel mono tasking would help me focus better and be in present

@gustavoorta8281 Год назад

Hi Jim. By watching your useful video I doubt have come to my mind. Being multifaceted or versatile is more or less the same as being multitasking? On the other hand, if they're not... How can I differentiate them? Thanks a lot for your answer.

I’m struggling with horrible brain fog and depression. I have no energy. I’m stressed, not sleeping well, dealings with Ants. I’m overweight and overwhelmed. I used to be so locked in on life but I’m turning 60 this year and my self talk is self trash. I fear mental illness is on the horizon. Simply overwhelmed and over fatigued. I can’t exercise because my heart feels super weak. 😢 I don’t think you can help me, Jim ? Feel as if everything has broken down.

@lunasexy1334 Год назад

I work in an environment where I am constantly interrupted by clients or associates who need help or guidance. So I have to constantly be shift tasking and feel most of the time I have accomplished nothing. What do you suggest I do for me to not lose focus, stay organized and be productive?

@adeldee2980 Год назад

I pretty much do the same, have to update a database, answer endless phone calls and emails, sometimes i end up working overtime but i just try to set priorities. I basically ask myself "what will happen if i don't do this in 1 hour or 3 hours or 1 day?" and deal only with the things that have the most urgent consequences.

@alexislucas8637 Год назад

Hi Luna, on my side I am now able to say 'no' or 'yes but not now' to those colleagues. it helps a lot as you can at least end what you have started and so have the feeling that you have done something on your to-do list before helping someone else. Not easy especially if you have a kind character :)

@lartist-jk8fp 3 месяца назад

But I have a question. Can I learn multiple things at a time? It's not that I will do them all at the same time and task switch, but follow a timetable as qe did as kids in school, or dedicate certain days to each subject. Eg Monday and Tuesday is Art/painting. Wednesday is photography. Economics (for degree programme entrance exam) and a new language is every weekday for 2.5 hours each. Building business and miscellaneous (eg. graphic design, religious studies, writing, etc)can be Thursday and friday...Sunday can be me day > self care, cook, laundry, clean,chill. The problem is that I have tried this for the past 4 years and it doesnt seem to work. It's almost feels like an overload or it's too rigid when by nature I'm very moody and prefer spontaneity(?). I get upset because I feel like I'm not sure what I want still I'm afraid of making the wrong decision. I'm 34 yrs old btw. So it's also really late but I'm a late bloomer 😅

@GilesCuckow Год назад

I think a lot of people are guilty for this, somehow the brains craving for stimulation often wins the war on modern day focus. Do you have an episode on the subconscious? I wonder how much extra brain fuel it takes to absorb information to the subconscious or if thoughts without giving your full focus are even useful at all
