Explanation:

Shawn might have made the claim that he multitasks very effectively, and also that he actually performs better while multitasking than when doing a single task but the truth varies.

According to psychological researches, Multitasking reduces efficiency and performance as a result of the fact that the brain can only focus on an activity at a time. The brain lacks the capacity to perform two or numerous tasks simultaneously and successfully.  A combination of activities at once makes the brain less effective because there would be divided attention.

Research has also revealed that, in addition to slowing down performance, multitasking lowers your IQ.

be mindful of your own reaction,use positive self-talk,   and debrief.
