MULTITASKING

“I was sure they had some secret ability, but it turns out that high multitaskers are suckers for irrelevancy.  They were outperformed on every measure, and although they convinced themselves and the world that they were great at it, there was just one problem …

“Multitasking is merely the opportunity to screw up more than one thing at a –time.” Steve Uzzell

If you drop one of these, it will be irrevocably scuffed, nicked, perhaps even – James Patterson shattered.”
