I love this article and am so glad to see you post it. At first I think you were going to make a stand for multi-tasking and I had my fingers perched on the keyboard ready to give another opinion. But, you came through with the truth.

The truth is, we CAN’T multi-task. Not really. Our brains just aren’t wired to do that, and you did a great job of touching on that. So, if our brains aren’t wired to multi-task, what are they wired to do? Focus. Really, our brains are so incredible that if we allow it to do what it’s meant to do, it will perform exceptionally well for us.

Maybe you could change the title of this article to “Be Kind To Your Brain.” Mindfulness and meditation are great starts! =)

Meditation is a great way to find inner peace and quiet the mind. This will energize us and make us ready to take on any tasks at hand being relaxed and willing

Alas, I found I’m not the only one! lol. Although I’ve found myself being quite the social media nut these days and doing the same thing you talked about. As I’m going through the Eban Pagan “wake up productive” course I’ve found I have to “master my distractions” & only “eat in moderation.”

You hit it on the head, check your twitter for 5 minutes and *bam* 45 minutes just passed me by! It’s definitely about discipline and for me, setting aside my “social time” after I’ve gotten my most high producing & priority tasks out of the way is key.

It’s true things are becoming more complicated at times and social media is definitely a lot of ground to cover. However how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.

Social media could be like food, only in moderation and only the high nutrient dense foods should be eaten. Leave the junk alone. Food isn’t really complicated once you understand it. I don’t think social media is either, as long as you’re disciplined and educated.

Thank you for the quick tips and insight. Very glad someone brought this up because I’ve been working at taming the social beast myself.

Life is getting more and more complicated .These days you need a bunch of skills to survive .

The internet has really change our lifestyle into a more multi tasking one. I am guilty of opening up tons of tabs in my browser doing multiple task too, and I can say there sometimes I found myself spending too much time on facebook.
