Today's society moves at a faster pace than ever before. Many of us get through our days by flipping back and forth between one task and another. But how does all this multitasking affect us? According to the article "One Thing at a Time", many of us understand that some kinds of multitasking can be dangerous. But too many of us think that we can get by with multitasking because we just don't understand how bad it is for us. The article explains new research that proves that any multitasking is bad because it hurts our ability to focus. When we try to do many things at once, we do everything slowly and badly. I was very interested to learn how even regular kinds of multitasking can hurt our concentration, but what I found most significant is that we have to actually practice focusing on one thing in order to quit our habit of multitasking. This made me think how important it is to do activities that can improve our concentration because they help us stop dividing dividing our attention and stay focused on individual tasks.

Doing many things at the same time can affect us our lives. Multitasking can affect the mind. In others words, a single-task oriented individual can memorize more than a person who multi-tasks. The author explained the experiment of Stanford University, some students were asked to do all the things at the same time while others were asked to do individual to see who memorize better by taking a memory test. Based on the article "a tremendous among of evidence show that the brain does better when it's performing tasks in sequence rather than all at once . This means that the brain work better when is only focused on one specific thing than everything at once. For example; when I'm in my house doing my homework I always have the TV or music on. These things affect me in a bad way because i get distracted while I'm study by those sounds, its get difficult for me to study doing others things.
