MIT neuroscientist Earl Miller says, "Trying to concentrate on two tasks causes an overload of the brain's processing capacity...Particularly when people try to perform similar tasks at the same time, such as writing an email and talking on the phone, they compete to use the same part of the brain. Trying to carry too much, the brain simply slows down." If this is true of simple tasks like processing emails and phone calls, think of the impact of losing focus on the goals that could transform your business. Single-task focus!
