Multitasking Is Killing Your Brain — Here’s How to Fix It

Hi,

We live in a world where multitasking is praised — but your brain hates it.

Switching between apps, messages, tasks, and tabs might feel productive…
but neurologically, it’s like slamming the brakes and hitting the gas — over and over again.

⚠️ What Multitasking Really Does to You:

• 🧠 Reduces working memory capacity

• 🔁 Increases cortisol and decision fatigue

• 🛑 Weakens attention control (your brain stops filtering distractions)

• ⏳ Slows you down — up to 40% less efficient on complex tasks

✅ What to Do Instead (The Neurotweak Way):

1. Single-task in 90-minute blocks

→ Protect one task with full attention. Use airplane mode. Close all other tabs.

2. Use the “brain bookmark” technique

→ When switching tasks, jot down where you left off to reduce re-entry lag.

3. Let boredom train your focus

→ Don’t reach for dopamine. Sit still for 5 minutes daily and train your prefrontal cortex to resist urges.

Your focus is your superpower.
Multitasking is the thief.
Choose clarity — your brain will thank you.

Stay sharp,
