Multitasking

I wonder when you multitask, do your faculties suffer or improve.
I believe when the environment changes, the mind shifts gears and starts afresh. Or am I just being plain stupid !
5 in the morning at the gym, gives you a sense of having physically moved yourself into some mobility. Essential since, any stagnant behavior clutches the body in excruciating pain.
While you gym, the mind does not necessarily concentrate on the weight that you push or the repetitions that you perform on the bench. It also pays attention to the sound on the system, the music that is played with some volume, to inspire one to enjoy the ordeal of exercise or motivate it towards performing adequately.
There is also simultaneously the TV screen that runs on different channels - sport, news, music video, trailers of coming films, general knowledge information, preaching, astrology on how the day shall shape for one, the weather…
The mind registers all that. Registers it more as you begin your yogic breathing. As you shut your eyes, images and thoughts appear. Some you wish aside, others you allow to linger. Those that linger tend to be disturbing, yet you do not allow it to break concentration.
At home a general inspection tour of the property. Plants well watered and in place, pavement washed and then… out in the sun
News to be read. Phone calls to anniversaries, response to a million sms on mobile, connecting to loved ones then..
The office.....
Back home. I have not eaten yet. It is 6.30pm !! Ok bring it in quickly and nothing too complicated, need to rush off again.

My periamma has been in hospital for a surgery. I had sent her a message for her speedy recovery. She calls back to thank and inform that she is home. Was getting depressed in hospital she says so came away. Oh ! I was planning on visiting you in hospital. Do not take after surgery too lightly I warn her, take rest and do not get into any kind of activity. She sounds a little groggy. I shall visit her tomorrow.

And I quietly slip away..

Dinner, dinner.. the kitchen is screaming. Just gulped a few spoonfuls as I punch in on the comp.

MULTITASKING !!!
