Single Tasking Day

Single Tasking Day is an annual American holiday celebrating single-tasking. This approach to creating your daily routine has long been known in society and is the exact opposite of multitasking. It is celebrated on February 22.

History

The creation of Single Tasking Day is dedicated to the morning habit of doing one specific task. It is believed that this approach allows you to successfully start a new day, and the realization of a small victory energizes you for the whole day.

Single-tasking is a person’s ability to devote his time to one task. Rest intervals should be kept to a minimum, otherwise it may turn out that the whole day will be devoted to one thing, which will not be done until the end.

For a long time, the idea of multitasking has been actively promoted in society. It was believed that this approach allowed you to be productive throughout the day and achieve significant success. However, studies by psychologists have proven that multitasking is not effective, and the body is experiencing serious physical and emotional overload. In the end, this is fraught with professional burnout and lingering depression.

Interesting facts
