Re: Maximize Your Productivity
#2I've been doing much of this for a long time now, particularly listening to podcasts while working out or walking the dog.
In my opinion, it actually hurts productivity. You become dependent upon having a mental and emotional escape from your physical surroundings. Instead of developing self-discipline, you indulge in escapism.

#3Heaven forbid that you spend sometime actually focusing on a single topic and immersing yourself in it to try to see the layers authors may have put into their books.
If you're reading something that requires that little of your focus (i.e. you can read it while on an exercise bike), maybe you should choose better reading material.
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for multi-tasking where available, but why are we a culture of trying to maximally absorb information? I was hoping this article was going to tell me that I should spend less time on the dreaded reddit/hacker news cycle.

#4DISHES? Get your self a dishwasher and focus on a task that needs your full attention of just rest. After all this multitasking I think your head and body needs to just chill.
