Some people multitask too much and get nothing done. To me, that's not productive at all. Always have a few top priorities and complete those first. Even our IT development model is moving from waterflow to agile now (complete the priorities first and not try to do everything). but i know for entrepreneurs....u have to multitask, and u have to make sure ALL the tasks be completed. :P <b>@ Chris</b> Mmm i think they are looking for scripts, not comic. Still thinking to join or not. Maybe will try to brainstorm this weekend. @ Damien

The one that Sukh sent. It'll be a great avenue for you to come up with a comic or something like that. Are you entering the Nescafe thingy? The one that Sukh sent.

Seriously, if you want to be an entreprenuer, I think multitasking is something you learn to get used to. My favorite example is the char koey teow man. He's the cook, cleaner, purchasing manager, accountant, salesman, director, PR guy, technician and driver all rolled into one. And he doesn't stop when he closes shop. Focusing on one task or two at a time can only happen if you're in a 9-5 job or have others to depend on. People like me don't have the luxury. :) I want to take a break from my break, lolz…

Taking a break is good. That's why the saying goes "taking a short break is to go the extra mile" :P @ foongpc

I like to laze around doing nothing sometimes. I think we do deserve such a break. It’s good to take a break once in a while. I like to laze around doing nothing sometimes.
