Flextime 1 4 – Versatile Timer For Your Repetitive Activities Worksheets
We came across this 15 min talk by tech entrepreneur and investor Joe Kraus, who explains how our phones and online activity is eroding our already threadbare attention spans. He explains that the human mind cannot multitask–that it shifts its attention from one thing to the next, but it does not and cannot pay attention to more than one thing at a time. Moreover, the more often we shift between various stimuli–i.e. multitask–the dumber we get (-10 IQ pts.) and the harder it becomes to shift in the future. As he says of multitasking, 'It's one of the only things where the more you practice it, the worse you get at it.'

In addition to Kraus' suggestions, here is a comprehensive list from artist/programmer/activist Steve Lambert of online tools that restrain our compulsion to multitask:

Online media, computers and mobile devices are integral and invaluable parts of our lives. But in a certain way, because they have been introduced so fast, we haven't had time to cultivate smart habits around their usage. Our primordial minds' default setting is to get more stuff and receive more stimulation; to think that this setting would be overridden in the 15 or so years we've been online is mistaken.
