“There is a research basis for why O’Leary treats the three-priority framework as non-negotiable rather than just useful. Studies cited by the American Psychological Association found that switching between tasks could cost as much as 40% of productive time due to the mental cost of reorientation, a finding that has held across more than two decades of cognitive research. And recovering full focus after an interruption takes longer than most people realize, with some research putting the average time to refocus after a distraction at more than 23 minutes, meaning a single interruption mid-morning could cost most of the session that follows.” (Chris Lewis, Kevin O’Leary Says Steve Jobs Gave Him the Best Advice: ‘There’s Only 3 Things You Have to Get Done Every Day’)
