Multi-tasking is such an exhausting state as one typically finds themselves working longer on multiple items than it would take to focus on one at a time and working through this list. I challenge you to look at your “to do list” with different eyes and focus on one thing at a time. Do it with all your energy as fully as you can then move onto the next item.

Excellent post! You are absolutely correct. Multitasking isn't satisfying because we are not focused on what we are doing. When we engage ourselves with the task at hand, life is a much richer experience. Enjoy this present moment. Feeling good involves having a dream, and being actively involved in the creation of your dream, not just having the outcome of the dream.

This is a great reminder to keep things simple. A lot of what has most of our attention wasn't even around just 10 years ago. You are right, I have learned that you can never really multitask and that saying NO is good for you. Read Missdebtfree´s latest article - Ways to Save:#1 Eliminate the need for budgeting …

Good post and very inspirational. I have been trying to simplify my life. I started with not multitasking. I'm still working on that but I am a lot better then I used to be at enjoying the moment and the single task at hand. I like the resting or meditation part. I used to do that a lot and have gotten away from it so this was like finding and old friend lost but not totally forgotten. Read Scott´s latest article - The Cost of College is Going Up!

Good article, it's so easy to shuffle papers all day long and stay busy doing nothing. I think it comes down to really knowing what you want, what you need to do to get there, then just getting on with it.

[...] I challenge you to take 5 minutes to be still and quiet. This will likely be harder than you think. Find a place where you can be alone with no distractions. Be sure the television and radio are off. Sit in a chair or on the bed, close your eyes, still your mind and just sit there for five full minutes. Increase the time each day until you can spend a full 30 minutes in this calm state. This is detox for your busyness! [continue reading] [...]

Multitaksing can hurt me sometimes. I feel like I have to do everything at once and try to do too much and thin myself out. Sometimes stepping back can really help out.
