Going forward to age 60 years old: Multitasking was seeing how many of those same things I could do in a day.
Now: Multi-tasking is tracking the things I’ve done all in the same week.
The good news is the motivation to accomplish multiple tasks remains sound. And the concept of speed remains relevant as the turtle speeds by the snail.
Memory and multi-tasking are too completely different issues, I think, or I thought……what were we talking about?
