    Multitasking makes it difficult to focus, easier to make mistakes, and harder to be productive. Projects take longer—about fifty percent less gets accomplished when one tries to do a few things at once, instead of working on one thing at a time. Tasks may also end up half-finished, or get finished with low quality. Although about 2% of people can multitask efficiently, the overwhelming majority of people can't and don't benefit from trying to.

    Single Tasking Day came as a response to all the multitasking habits that surround us. It is a day to focus and concentrate on one thing at a time. Maybe only one thing will get accomplished all day. Maybe multiple things will. Either way, the day is for only working on one thing at a time.

    So - breakfast first, then a long think about the rest of the day :thinking:

    I'm not going to do this, obviously:

    ;) I have actually, a stupid poncey Worcester :(. Why make it easy to take apart when it can be made difficult! Problem is, you know that something hard to take apart will be harder to put back together!!
