RE: Is 'Cognitive Overload' Hurting Your Productivity? And Life?

Alright this post rocks! That's why I upvoted, following ya, and resteemed this. I ponder these things frequently.

I work in the healthcare field. Documentation in my field of work (physical Therapy ) is insane. While i agree our documentation should reflect why the individual requires skilled PT intervention, the key phrases and things medicare and other insurance companies want is what i have coined as "taking the love out of healthcare " . In my field high productivity is also required. While i generally do not struggle with That , there are occassions where one actually has to be documenting while executing patient care. This is called point of service. We have to be hyper focused to keep that productivity up that who unfortunately ends up getting the short end of the stick? The patient! I don't allow this but there are some therapists that just can't handle it so either they skim on quality care or get yelled at for "poor productivity" .

I didn't even think about the radio being a source but it is. Makes sense as when i commute home some times i just drive in silence . After all my mind has been taxed mentally, emtionally all day.

But i Happen to also be a person (since childhood) that constantly has topics in mind and i am generally frustrated i don't have an outlet for them. That is why steemit is great. Facebook never quite made the cut in that arena.

People are def in information overload though. Especially when one considers the fact that you can literally receive news from the other side of the globe about some catastrophic event within minutes to seconds of it happening! This puts a lot of people in panic mode, constantly honed into mainstream media, etc.

Even with my weird fast moving brain the need to press the reset button is definitely there. And i do it through hobbies like coloring, running, exercise, sleeping (yeah that isn't a hobby but it resets the brain)
