A quick glance at your phone doesn't cost you ten seconds. The research says it costs you closer to twenty three minutes of real focus. This week is a solo one on the psychology of monotasking, doing one thing at a time, and why it might be the most underrated upgrade for anyone who works, writes, studies or creates.

Keegan makes the case for single focus over the constant juggle, and he's honest that he's a recovering serial multitasker himself. He gets into why boredom is the engine of creativity, the real cost of switching between tasks, what putting headphones in on a hard run is actually doing, and the weekend his phone broke that left him calmer than he'd been in a long time. It is not about optimising every second of your life. It is about knowing when to give one thing everything you've got.

For more just like this, go back to the conversation that started it, our episode with Alexis Fernandez on the neuroscience of connection, creativity and heartbreak.
