Doing several things at the same time was considered an advantageous female feature.
The emergence of technology and especially social networks are changing that perception.
Or rather, the meaning of the word «multitasking».
Now, quickly changing screen, having different applications and constantly active notifications leads us to a attention problem you may have noticed.
📱 You have a hard time concentrating? It may not be you... but what we know as short spam.
In the age of the 15-second videos, the infinite reels and scrolls, our brain is getting used to receiving short, fast and constant stimuli. This phenomenon, known as short spam, satures our attention and decreases our ability to concentrate and retain.
🧠 Every time we change content in seconds, we train our mind to distract itself more easily and not to deepen anything.
The result?
👉 We have a hard time reading a full article.
👉 We constantly interrupt tasks.
👉 We forgot what we just saw or did.
💡 What can you do to get your attention back?
It practices conscious consumption: it limits time on social networks and avoids multitasking.
📚 Train your mind with long content: books, podcasts or extensive articles.
🌿 Introduce digital breaks: disconnect from the mobile at least one hour a day and create spaces without screens.
Your concentration deserves a noisy space.

ENG:
Multitask used to be considered an advanced feminine train. The emergence of technology, and especially social media, is changing that perception.
Or rather, the meaning of the word «multitasking.»
Now, quickly switching screens, having different apps and notifications constantly active leads to an attention problem that you may have noticed.
📱 Are you trying to concentrate? It may not be you... but what we know as short spam.
In the age of 15-second videos, reels, and infinite scrolling, our brains are getting used to receiving brief, quick, and constant stimulation. This phenomenon, known as short spam, saturates our attention and decreases our ability to concentrate and retain information.
🧠 Every time we switch between content in seconds, we train our minds to be more easily distracted and not to delay into anything.
The result?
👉 We struggle to read a full article.
👉 We constantly switch tasks.
👉 We get what we just saw or did.
💡 What can you do to register your attention?
Ensure minimal consumption: limit your time on social media and avoid multitasking.
📚 Train your mind with long-form content: books, podcasts, or long articles.
🌿 Enter digital breaks: disconnect from your phone for at least an hour a day and create screen-free spaces.
Your concentration deserves a quiet space.
