Publisher's Summary

Your Mind Can't Be Two Places at Once

Too many of us have become addicted to the popular, enticing, dangerously misleading drug of multitasking. Devora Zack was once hooked herself. But she beat it and became more efficient, and you can too. Zack marshals convincing neuroscientific evidence to prove that you really can't do more by trying to tackle several things at once - it's an illusion. There is a better way to deal with all the information and interruptions that bombard us today.

Singletasking explains exactly how to clear and calm your mind, arrange your schedule and environment, and gently yet firmly manage the expectations of people around you so you can accomplish a succession of tasks one by one - and be infinitely more productive. Singletasking is the secret to success and sanity.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

"In this fast paced world, multitasking has become second nature to most of us - but are we really accomplishing more? In Singletasking, Devora Zack shows us how doing one thing at a time reduces stress, increases efficiency, and produces higher quality results. If you want to work smarter, not harder, read this book!" (Ken Blanchard, coauthor of The One Minute Manager® and Refire! Don't Retire)
