Why Multi-Tasking Is A Myth & Using Focus Time Blocks To Avoid Distraction | Byte The Habit - Part 6
73What if our constant app-switching wasn’t making us more efficient but slowly draining our mental capacity? Managing multiple tasks simultaneously feels efficient but is that really productive?

Two families, Wani’s and Elvin’s, take on an experiment to find out – they try to complete a self-assigned task in two focus time blocks - one with full digital access, and another without any digital distractions. Is task switching a focus killer?
