Multi-tasking... do you like doing two or more things at the same time?

Hi there. Multi-tasking is a natural thing for most women... Personally speaking, I can carry a phone with me, wash and dry dishes as well as cook and clean after myself... Actually today, I hung out the first load of washing, cleaned and vacummed the house, while I waited for the second load of washing, hung that out and weeded 2 gardens, while talking to my husband on our hand held phone, then decided to wash one of our cars, and this only minor multi-tasking compared to other things I have done within 1-2 hours of less lol...

I usually multi-task, mostly because I have a short attention span. But at work, I stay focussed on one task until it's done, and move onto the next. Otherwise I'd spend all day juggling different things, and stuff would get missed or not completely finished.

Oh yes I am lol. I have always been one for getting more bang for my time. So I don't just do one thing at once. Like my time here at mylot, I am answering and replying while eating and/or drinking coffee. When I finish I leave to get other things done, but only return when I am taking a break to eat or drink coffee again. I can't just set here and not have something else to do or get done.

Well just want to keep it short. This kind of life makes you to be the superstar in whatever you do, cause i do it also. Keep it up.

Yes i love doing two things sometimes more things at a time. I usually do that at home too.Just like baby setting, doing household chores. I do cooking, laundrey manaually, cleaning the house and a lot more. Sometimes it depends on the time i am consuming for that certain work.There's nothing wrong about it as lomg as you can afford to do them together. I can recall all the things when i give birth thru ceasarian, i wash my baby's clothes at the sam time nursing her,i can cook too while nursig her. It is just upon us whether we can do it or not. ....BUt I really do that..............

Multi tasker Some ppl can others can't... I can!!

I can and do multi-task, but I hear that it is not always the greatest thing to do.

When it comes to important things I am far from being a multi-tasker.I can do only one thing at a time.But,when the job is kind of mundane I can multi-task myself and complete it easily,though it takes a bit of planning beforehand.I am one of those guys who has to plan before execution and hate planning something in the middle of a task.

Yep, as long as you don't use two of your senses at the same time. I usually do the same as yours. I can listen to music while reading or doing scrapbook. I also encode things in the computer while talking over the phone. It's funny sometimes because my friends get amazed everytime am doing two tasks at the same time.

I have always been a multi-tasker. I can't seem to keep my mind on just one thing at a time, and jump from one thing to another, so even if I tried to do just one thing at a time I don't think that I could do it.

Hi there. I sure do manage our home well and I also get things done in less time, this way I have free time on my hands to get other things done, or simply read a book lol... My husbands always appreciative and proud with anything I do, I have awsome support from him... Have a great day...

I think people have been multi-tasking for years without actually thinking about it, because it has become part of everyday life. Some common examples: (1) You watch TV, while at the same time munching on your potato chips and having a conversation with your family (2) You sit on your "throne" in the toilet doing your thing, and reading a magazine while going about your business (3) While you are shopping around town, your cellphone rings and you answer it; while talking, you are giving instructions to try and resolve a problem at home. What's worse is at work, your boss nowadays expects you to multi-task. You are expected to work on multiple projects at the same time, service your customer, read and answer emails, discuss issues, give suggestions, compile a report, handle some work problems with subordinates, create a presentation, attend meetings, etc. etc. In this modern world of ours, we'll all likely develop into superworkers, supermoms and superdads.

I think multi-tasking is ok but you can do something wrong. Sometimes I can't manage all of the tasks and I just do it one by one...

that is a definite yes. i do a lot of things and i want to do them in the shortest amount of time possible. so i will definitely try to put things together or do them in a certain order together so that i can finish them faster and get on with all the other things in my life.

I personally do not like multi-tasking but was train to do that. I used to handle multiple projects and need to switch from one to another sometimes when things don't turn out well. I also do typing and speaking to clients on the phone before.

I too watch TV while reading. During my Grad. exams i stayed at my Uncles house. Since that was after a long lapse i visited my uncles house that too just for exam, my uncle was talking to me about my family through out the day and i decided its quiet impossible for him to shut his mouth and started reading listening to his speech. I think its a great capability gifted by god, as I score also the first rank in my class.
