Scrambling, Multitasking ...

How does one Multitask..

Do you see yourself like an octopus? with a lot of things going on all at the same time? which one to juggle? which one should be done first?

"Here you are, reports due by Wednesday", says your colleague.

"Don't forget our meeting tomorrow at 3 pm", one of your associates reminded you.

You do have all schedules and meetings booked in your calendar (You might be using any calendar apps or reminder apps that your smart phones or iPhones have), but you still keep up and can't finish anything you've just started.


Well, there's a cool way to exercise your brain. Generic suggestions would be:

• play a musical instrument
• play chess with someone 
• get to know latest events by reading magazines, newspapers
• avoid watching TV

etc...

And the not so conventional approach would be to try sites which offers multiple cerebral tests & engaging games, challenging your wits. And there are other sites that opens your mind to new ideas.

One that I know of: Lumosity - this site provides huge ways to help improve your brain muscles. Discover your inner octopus!

And, one site I just found out that brings out the inner geek in you (Geek isn't a bad term, it does not connote any negative meaning whatsoever. In fact, it's cool, and if you're one of them, then you're in the in crowd). 

I think there's an online mascot right now, called "Multitask Octopus" this might be trending already, or should be trending by now. 

And I'd like to share this blog site: www.abriraqui.net, and I landed on this part of this site right here. I know there are millions of tech sites out there.. but something that tackles the linux kernel, just for a hobby, is a tough read! 

To sum it all up, multitask is subjective, it depends on each individual how you gauge yourself. I, myself, am  not that good when it comes to multitasking.. but I'm getting better.. Wish me luck!
