As per my research, basically multitasking is performing more than one work ata a same time. for example- you are studying and also you are listening music, using Dm, or writing something these are the more than one tasks at a single point of time.

Multitasking leads to imfocus as the brain shiftes from one task to another very quickly. Multitasking kills the productivity of the brain also it leads to reduced memory retention, mental fatique, increased mistakes, and confusion.

What we should do?? Study for 25-50 min without break with full focus then take a short break of 5-10 min and then rework this makes brain work faster and quicker and understand the task well.

“Multitasking may feel productive, but it often reduces concentration and memory while studying.”
