QUOTES from the Sandbox ~ Friday, August 30, 2019

By
Real Estate Agent with TEAMCONNECT REALTY - (407) 394-9766

Hi Everyone!  Happy Friday!!  Yesterday I read a great post written by
Alexandra, Ron and Alexandra Seigel and reblogged by Barbara Todaro:
August 26, 2019 -'On Multitasking and Mindfulness'   It really spoke to me
and of course, I went to quotes to play.  Maybe you might find it helpful --
I would like to thank Alexandra and Barbara -- think I came away with
a secret --  I seem to be holding a gold coin in my hand.            ~Jane
                                                                            ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

"Multitasking is great in the kitchen when you are trying to time the chicken
to 
be ready at the same time as the potatoes.  But do not assume it is a great
way 
to manage a workday."                                                    ~Joanne Tombrakos

"Multitasking the art of doing twice as much as you should,  half as well as
you could."                                                                                           ~Anonymous

"We miss extra bits of knowledge that can add value to our lives.  We sort
of lack empathy because we're multitasking all the time."
                                                                                                                 ~Kim Stolz

"Multitasking divides your attention and leads to confusion and weakened
focus."                                                                                           ~Deepak Chopra

"Eating toast in the shower is the ultimate multitask."  
                                                                                                            ~Henry Styles

"The more you multitask, the less deliberative you become;  the less able to
think and reason out a problem."                                                 ~Nicholas Carr

"Multitasking is like constantly pulling up a plant.  This kind of constant
shifting of your attention means that new ideas and concepts have no
chance to take root and flourish."                                           ~Barbara Oakley

"You can do two things at once, but you can't focus effectively on two things
at once."                                                                                            ~Gary Keller

"Multitasking is a myth.  It's just an act of breaking your efficiency into
different tasks."                                                                                      ~Adilogi

"Be like a postage stamp -- stick to one thing until you get there."
                                                                                                         ~Josh Billings

"Success demands a singleness of purpose."     
                ~the late Green Bay Packer Championship Coach Vince Lombardi
                                                               ~~~~~~~~~

Good morning Jane. Must say not a fan of multitasking and enjoyed the following quote which sums it up so well.

"Multitasking the art of doing twice as much as you should,  half as well as
you could."                                                                                           ~Anonymous
