Pros Of Multitasking

Cartesian Dualism With the “new” Method of Doubt, Descartes arrived at the conclusion, that he can doubt everything except the existence of his own mind. And it is important to understand that he can doubt his physical body but not his mind, therefore he argues that there is a significant difference between Mind and Body. Modern science has shown how the brain is, simplified stated, a machine which causes thinking. For Descartes this was not his understanding of the brain. He rather thought that the brain can be understood as the connecting organ between the physical body and the immaterial mind.

The human brain is wired in such a way that we are constantly making connections with out even realizing it. Perhaps thats why proofreading can bee such a dificult task for non nerds. Even proofreaders brains can switch too auto-pilot, and we can loose our normally meticulous focus. Spelling errors, typo 's, punctuation mistakes and an over reliance on technology have all resulted in some pretty serious proofreading disasters.

Steven Pinker wrote “Mind over Mass Media” which tells of this claim is more false than true. Pinker reminds us that if technology was actually making us more stupid, then how are we scientifically better than ever before. Critics are believing that the mind is being shaped by everything it is seeing and hearing. The only problem here is the lack of self control people have when it comes to the distracting parts of the internet we use so often. People tend to find themselves reading tweets instead of articles now.

This project consisted of me researching a job and building my networking skills to gain a host to show me what it takes to work in a certain career. To acquire the host I wrote several letters to different places so assure my appointment.

I found myself job shadowing an auto mechanic, Rod Emory, an auto mechanic/businessman who ran his own company. He is very known for his style of cars he creates and has a very successful company.

How did you handle a situation where a generational gap in understanding caused either conflict or generalizations to occur? Early in my professional career, I was a law clerk for a loop law firm. This was a unique situation, because I was a young lady in an office with five males that were between the ages of 60 and 75. Honestly, it was not the most comfortable environment, but we all manage to coexist, and the office was quite productive.

In addition to stress, it has been discovered that, “...incoming information can change how people think and behave. These play to a primitive impulse to respond to immediate opportunities and threats. The stimulation provokes excitement — a dopamine squirt — that researchers say can be addictive. In its absence, people feel bored. The resulting distractions can have deadly consequences, as when cellphone-wielding drivers and train engineers cause wrecks...these urges can inflict nicks and cuts on creativity and deep thought, interrupting work and family life”, (Rechtel).

Spring points out how cheating is so effortless with online learning and how the temptation is always there.

Multitasking is ineffective in the eyes of psychologists for the simple reason that our brains have to switch back and forth from task to task which can confuse the brain and actually take longer. Tugend talks about how we have become accustomed to multitasking. Our brains know no better and subconsciously our brains want to do another task regardless of if we are trying to focus on one thing or not. Some people’s brains have become so accustomed to this that in order for them not to

and I find it entertaining when I get in an argument with someone and they get all flustered. Just because I find it fun that does not mean everyone else does. It is a blessing being stubborn because it is a little easier to achieve what you set out to do, but sometimes one needs to know when to back down, and I do not know when I need to back off. I have never been able to back down from a fight, and sometimes I’ve ended up in some pretty sticky situations. But I stick with my gut and things usually work themselves out in the
