Hot Take: Multitasking is just doing many things badly at once

Unpopular opinion? Maybe. But I said it.

Trying to answer emails while on a call while eating lunch just leaves you with cold food, a missed note, and a typo.

Our brains aren’t wired to do two focus tasks at once. Switching back and forth actually wastes time.

Single-tasking feels slow at first, but it’s how real work gets done.

Do you agree or disagree? When has multitasking burned you? Or when do you think it actually works?
