Do you ever feel relentlessly busy, yet completely unproductive? You're juggling ten browser tabs, three chat conversations, and a phone that buzzes every five minutes. We’ve been sold the myth that multitasking is a modern superpower. But the neuroscience is clear: it’s not a superpower; it’s a super-drain. Your brain isn't doing ten things at once; it's just doing ten things badly.

Welcome to "Single-Tasking vs Multitasking." In this episode, we break down the hard science of attention. You'll learn about the "cognitive switch-cost"—the 40% productivity hit your brain takes every time you glance at a notification—and why "deep work," as defined by Cal Newport, is the real key to success. We'll give you a practical, neuroscience-backed checklist to start training your focus, managing your dopamine, and finally beating the "attention economy" at its own game. Are you ready to reclaim your brain from the chaos?
