Another data point: “Microsoft decided to study this phenomenon in their workers and found that it took people an average of 15 minutes to return to their important projects… every time they were interrupted by e-mails, phone calls, or other messages,” Bradberry wrote. “They didn’t spend the 15 minutes on the interrupting messages, either; the interruptions led them to stray to other activities, such as surfing the web for pleasure.”

But why do we feel we’re getting so much done when we’re so busy?

“We’re so enamored(迷恋) with multitasking that we think we’re getting more done, even though our brains aren’t physically capable of this,” Bradberry wrote. “Regardless of what we might think, we are most productive when we manage our schedules enough to ensure that we can focus effectively on the task at hand.” (无论我们怎么认为，如果我们处理事务时确保有效聚焦在手头工作，我们的生产力就是较高的。)

In some studies, it was found that people use business to “hide from… laziness and fear of failure”.(有些研究发现，人们用忙碌当借口来“掩盖......懒惰和失败的恐惧) “We burn valuable time doing things that aren’t necessary or important because this busyness makes us feel productive,” he wrote. “As it turns out, you really do have to slow down to do your best.”
