Multitasking is a myth; true multitasking does not exist as humans are not capable of parallel processing. Instead, task switching occurs, which results in a significant loss of focus. Real engagement requires dedicated attention to a single task. Moreover, the allure of social media and video games can diminish the appeal of real-world activities.

Leveraging positive experiences and rewards can enhance motivation and reinforce habits, such as taking a walk after accomplishing a goal, thus promoting a happier and more productive lifestyle.
