When we switch between one task and another due to an interuption there is a cost. Whilst we may feel like we are managing we often underestimate the toll task-switching has on our time, productivity and wellbeing. In this episode we take a brief look at how we get interupted, the cost of those interuptions and the impact it has on learning, productivity and our wellbeing as a whole. Plus there is a great little experiment you can do so have a pen and paper ready. The book mentioned is Flow: the classic work on how to achieve happiness by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi.
