经常走神?说明你太聪明了

Intelligent people are more easily distracted

Those who find themselves easily distracted at work may be intellectually superior to their colleagues, according to research.

研究发现,在工作中易被分散注意力的人可能比他们的同事智商更高.

Intelligent workers may have difficulty concentrating due to the vast number of clever ideas popping into their gifted brains.

高智商的人很难集中注意力,是因为他们总能灵光一闪,想出许多绝妙的主意.

Bostjan Ljubic, vice president of Steelcase, a workplace solutions company that analysed the findings of neuroscientists and cognitive researchers, said: "Employers are always on the lookout for the brightest people available, however the difficulty to withstand multiple tasks and distractions in the office affects smart people in the same way as everyone else, if not more."

斯迪凯斯公司通过对神经科学家和认知研究者的调研结果进行分析,为企业提供人力管理解决方案.斯迪凯斯副总裁博斯扬·柳比奇说:"雇主们总是在寻找最聪明的人.然而,同其他人一样,聪明人在面对多重任务时也会无从下手,而且在容易走神这件事上,聪明人跟普通人差不多,甚至不如普通人."

The smartest individuals may find it more difficult to decide which ideas to prioritise with distraction leading to, what psychiatrist Dr Ned Hallowell cites as, "a feeling of inadequacy and inability to deal with the workload as a whole," the Telegraphreports.

英国《每日电讯报》报道称,聪明人不容易分清事务的轻重缓急.引用精神病学博士内德·哈洛韦尔的话说就是:这是因为"注意力不集中导致他们无法从全局的角度考虑事情,或者考虑的不够充分."

He added, the smartest brains can ultimately fall short of their own expected potential, as well as failing to live up to their employer's hopes.
