Studies have linked chronic, high stress multitasking under intense pressure to short term memory loss. Multitasking actually makes a person more inefficient because it reduces the brain power needed to perform each task.
-Deborah Smith Pegues-
I got this quote from a friend and it seems really true in my life. You see, I love to multi-task up to the point of feeling nauseated because of too much stress. While it does not make me feel good, the result of multitasking, which is accomplishing many things in a short span of time, gives me a sigh of relief.
However, it does affect me really bad. Sometimes, I breeze and hurry through things that when my husband asks me about something I did or said in the past 30 minutes, I could not even remember it. Imagine that! Sigh… I just attribute it to the fact that I had undergone Caesarian Section when I gave birth, but I think that is just one facet and most of my short-term memory loss is really because of stress and multitasking.
Really, I should really slow down a bit, de-clutter my life, and give more time for rest. My concern now is how to increase my income level so that I will not have to work so much to earn the same or to even earn more money?
Ciao.
