Context switching leads to mental fatigue and lack of productivity, as frequent shifts between various tasks prevent meaningful progress and create a sense of exhaustion.
I realized my frequent shifts were not allowing me to focus on essential projects. I audited my day and found that despite working hard, I made little progress.
The difference between context switching and multitasking is crucial; multitasking means managing multiple tasks at the same time, while context switching means switching focus entirely between tasks.
Just like forgetting my shopping list after distractions, we’re often left feeling exhausted but with no sense of accomplishment when constantly shifting our focus.
