blog # 15 Type CATW practice # 3

The article "How to Do One Thing at a Time" adapted from women's health maggazine, states that when we multi-task our brains tend to work less productive, due to we lose concentration by doing more than one thing at a time. Therefore, the article also shows us prove of how we do better when we focus only on doing one thing at a time.
First of all, I agree with idea that when we are chatting, talking on the phone or on the internet while performing a task, it make us  work less efficient. it is because we are made to do things in sequense, in order to give one hundred percent on whatever we are doing. For intance, at my job i always multi task. I'm most of the time sending texts to my friends, family and girlfriend. even though my job requare a lot of concentration. I work cheking freights when theyy come out of the aircrafts. So sometimes by multi tasking i miscount the merchandise that i'm giving out. My boss lately told that if i keep doing these same mistake by being on the phone and working at same time, he is gonna fire me. so i personally think that multi tasking is really a negative habit or hobby to prictice.
Another thing that shows that multi tasking is not benefitial in our lives is that when we want to learn some thing like getting ready for a exam we can't be like the article says chatting, palying musicand writing a short essay because to write a goood essay, we need to be focused otherwise what we are writing will not satisfy the public who's reading it For example my girlfriend always tellls me that when she writes an essay and then she hears the phones ringing she feels like she wants to answer it. making her lose concentration and then have to start all over again.
in conclusion, the article "how to Do One Thing at a Time" from women's  health magazzine, explains the difference between how doing things in sequence is way better than just doing all at once. i think that everybody sould read this article so they can see that multi tasking can even cause them get hurt or killed speciallly when we are driving.
