Some people think that it is better to do more than one projects at the same time than to focus on one project at a time. However, I disagree with the idea for two reasons. First, it would lead to better results each. Also, it would save overall time.
To begin with, it would be easier to concentrate on each project if they are done independently. To be specific, 'choice and focus' is needed to do projects as each of them needs a significant amount of concentration and efforts to be finished. Doing them altogether might just lead people doing projects to be distracted which would also affect their results. I would like to give an example of my own to elucidate my points. When I was a high school student, there were a lot of homework to be done each day. Once, I was assigned two big projects to be done in a week. I had no choice but to do both of them at once. Since there were too much things to do for each project, I had a very hard time doing them. Even though I made such great efforts for both projects, I got fairly low grades on them as I could not focus on any of those projects. This experience demonstrates that it would be better not to do several projects at a time in order to not to be distracted.
On top of that, doing projects one at a time would save overall time. Usually different projects involve different groups of people, appropriate places for projects and needed materials. When doing two or more projects at once, one should be moving places or changing groups of people working together frequently which would lead to the waste of time. Spending this wasted time on doing each of the projects would be more effective. My friend's experience as a freshman in the university might be a good example. My friend was a lab assistant for one of the laboratories in chemistry department having a lot of things to do. Also, as she was a quite diligent student, she joined a lot of other projects held in other departments in the university such as biology department. As there were a lot of works to be done by her in every minute, she always had to move to other labs more than more than 6 times a day. After finishing all the projects, she said that she had to waste too much time moving to other labs, and she regrets having done so. Her story illustrates that doing several projects at once may inevitably lead to waste of time.
To sum up, participating in more than one projects at once would make us hard to focus on each of them and waste time. In this regard, I firmly believe that it is much better and efficient to do one project at a time. |
