Multitasking and it's Effects

[Golden9]

Do you multitask at work or at home? Several studies have shown that it's not really effective, but it can even lead to errors and mistakes.

It's still fun doing it sometimes for me, and I feel like I can achieve more this way.

I do multitasking when working at home, especially teaching online. Only a few can do this in line with being a virtual teacher. It's not for everybody to do.

I only do multi task if I'm in the mood and if I'm too focus to the sites that I'm multi tasking of.

I multitaks a lot. I am already used to the whole thing really. Mistakes a bound to happen when you are focus on more then one thing at a time so best you try and avoid them when ever you can,

I do multi tasking and it does help me a lot but sometimes specially I forget what's on the gas and that is the only thing I need to worry about

Yes, I do when I have a lot of jobs to execute I would just do three to four of them at a time

I try to avoid multitasking as much as possible, as I find it hinders my productivity and focus. At work, I aim to fully dedicate my attention to one task at a time until completion. At home, I make an effort to be present with family and separate work from personal time.

Multitasking is not very good in terms of your productivity and efficiency. You need to focus one job at a time.

That depends on what I am doing. When I am doing translation, I need to focus and not doing other things. If I am just taking a survey, I may browse the internet, listen to music, or chat with friends at the same time.

I think the ability to multitask effectively is what is giving some people and edge over others. But it is not everyone's forte.

You are right. It is not for everybody to have it. Although I still think that it can be learned and enhanced if they the will to do it.

With the way I see things, I have a very limited time each day due to many things I have to sort out. As a result, I tend to always multitask
