Avoid New Information During Task Transitions

During the transition period, keep attention relatively free of new inputs. Do not look at your phone, text, use social media, forage for information, insert extra tasks, or attend to irrelevant environmental stimuli. The goal is to limit the total amount of new information entering the nervous system before the next demanding task.

What should come during that transition period? Well, The most important thing to arrive in that transition period is a relative lack of attention to anything new.
