Quote by Byung-Chul Han

“El multitasking no es una habilidad para la cual esté capacitado únicamente el ser humano tardomoderno de la sociedad del trabajo y la información. Se trata más bien de una regresión. En efecto, el multitasking está ampliamente extendido entre los animales salvajes. Es una técnica de atención imprescindible para la supervivencia en la selva.”

“Many of us go through our days attending to multiple stimuli simultaneously without giving any one thing our full and complete attention. We eat while watching TV and check our email while in the presence of our families. We think about our problems in the middle of a conversation or during an otherwise positive experience. We talk on the phone while driving and choose to distract ourselves from everyday tasks rather than attending to them. We escape the small moments rather than recognizing life is the small moments.”

“We think about going to the gym while we are at work. We think about work while exercising at the gym. We think about the errands we need to run while socializing with friends. We think about socializing with friends while running errands. There are many times where our body may be in one place, but our mind is elsewhere. These are internally driven multitasking distractions. Some are harmless, but when we choose to monotask, we can do everything better.”
