Sounds easy but in reality, not many people have learned to refuse
others. When you’re doing something, focus on it 100%, don’t multitask
and don’t think about other stuff. By all means, don’t allow other
people to interupt you.
The cost of an interuption comes from the fact that our brain takes time to readapt to the context of a problem, so while you might be thinking you’re solving multiple problems simultaneously, you almost always end up chasing two rabbits and coming up empty handed. That’s not to say that multitasking is wrong.
