Hi friend! Welcome back to another episode! This week we are talking about context switching. If you’re not familiar with what context switching is, it is one of the sneakiest energy drains and time sucks.
Context switching was originally used in computing to describe the switching of the CPU from one state of a process to another. Today, as it relates to efficiency and energy/time management you can think of context switching as going from one task to another that requires different type of energy, thinking and state of flow.
With context switching comes switch cost. There is a cost to switching and changing between different types of tasks. Whether that is time or energy or both.
Examples of context switching that can be costly:
When you switch between one task and another you will naturally expend energy but when you switch from doing one type of task to another you expend more which is why you can be strategic with how you schedule your days to help conserve energy and be more efficient.
Here’s what you can do to help reduce context switching:
That’s all for this week - I’d love it if you came to share what you will be implementing from this week's episode on Instagram @attentionaudit.
Until next week!
