personal overload :

a perception by a person (or observer) that the information associated with work tasks is greater than can be managed effectively, and a perception that such overload creates a degree of stress for which the coping strategies are ineffective.

The impact of overload:
time is wasted
delayed decision-making
distraction from main task
stress – tension, loss of job satisfaction, ill-health, reduced social activity, tiredness
