Whilst writing my last post Multitasking Super Hero I conducted an experiment where I deliberately juggled lots of other tasks at the same time. I was surprised at the effect this experiment had on me the following day. Here is a picture of me at 5.30am yesterday morning, the morning after I finished that post (I woke up at 5.30 to get ready to go to the gym).
On finishing that post I went straight to bed and found it took me a lot longer than normal to get to sleep as my mind was reeling from trying to concentrate on multiple tasks. The quality of sleep was much worse than I normally experience too.
At work the day after my experiment I felt a bit stressed and out of sorts. It was really surprising how much this had affected me. I took a photo of my desk and my computer in case you don’t believe how bad it really was.
The moral of this story is don’t try to be a multitasking super hero.

Hi Leanne,
Haha, this is too funny.
One time I used that “bang head here” poster in one of my posts. I did a lot of head banging when I started blogging. Truth be known, I still do a little of it to this day.

Hi Barbara,
Looks like the head banging can be at least partially alieviated with your latest blog post. Will be popping over to your site soon to read Part 1 and 2. I still have so much to learn about the world of blogging…still loving it though.
