The Hidden Cost of Multitasking

I read a study recently about something called attention residue. Fancy term,

isn't it? It basically says that every time you switch tasks, part of your brain

is left behind on the old task. You're not really here, and you're not really

there. You're scattered. So I asked myself, "Jim, what if you just

stop drifting for three days? Not a lifetime, just three days. What would happen

if you treated your attention like your money, investing it, not wasting it?"

Well, let me share with you the five simple disciplines that changed the game

for me.
