The point was even the very *best* multi-taskers did better when focusing on one task. I'm one of those people who CANNOT talk on the phone and drive. I don't know how some people do (my brother and BigMeanA are *excellent* at it). Mostly, you see the people who can't but think they can ;p Diane Rehm did a show on multi-tasking at some point in the past year…it’s far enough back that I’m too lazy to dig!

Thank you for the visit and comment. That sounds like a great book. I'm always interested in goal oriented type books and that sounds like a good one. I added it to my Visual Bookshelf. Hi Chrissy!

Everyone has a goal and inside, you find out you must evaluate daily if the steps you are taking are getting you closer to your <a href="http://www.naturalsuccessprinciples.com/" rel="nofollow">goal</a>. If your goal is a million dollars, is the 5.00 a month you are able to save working 92 hours a week going to get you there. Yes, but you will be dead first. That plan does not work. You must now manipulate the plan. Move the plan, change something in that plan. I checked out this book this last week called “Natural Success Principles” by Jack Hatfield.
