Are your workflow processes<\/a> as efficient as they could be? Learn an unexpectedly simple way to optimize your productivity in this audio clip.<\/p>\n

Efficient workflow processes are a critical part of operating a successful business.<\/h2>\n

And while some people may believe that multitasking is an efficient self management tool for optimizing productivity, you might be surprised to discover that is not the case.<\/p>\n

In fact, the term multitasking is somewhat of a misnomer.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s actually not possible to do more than one thing at the same time.<\/p>\n

A more accurate term is switch-tasking<\/i>, because you are really going from one thing to another, to another, and another…<\/p>\n

While switch-tasking makes it feel as if you are getting more done, the truth is that each time you switch from one task to another, transition time is required.<\/h2>\n

So the more times you switch, the more cumulative time is used for transition.<\/p>\n

If you just did one task at a time all the way through to completion, you would eliminate multiple transition periods, and thus save time.<\/p>\n

The other negative effect of switch tasking is that it can create a feeling of worry and anxiety in the body. This is because it revs up your motor, so to speak.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t think anyone is eager to add more worry and anxiety to their lives!<\/h2>\n

Extensive research has been done on this topic and it has determined that a task takes an average of three times longer to complete when it is done by switch tasking than when it is followed through to completion. THREE TIMES LONGER!<\/p>\n

So much for workflow efficiency!<\/p>\n

For this simple reason, I would recommend that everyone experiment with doing tasks all the way to completion.<\/p>\n

This is even more relevant if you are a switch-tasker and you already have issues with worry and anxiety.<\/p>\n

And it\u2019s certainly worth trying out if you would like to save time and increase your workflow efficiency<\/a>.<\/p>\n
