If only I could unitask better, I would likely have written this post several days ago. It was actually sitting down to write a new post that I was hit with this idea about “unitasking”. It was actually painful to watch myself. It went something like this:
  • check email, facebook, open my website admin page
  • make coffee
  • sit back down at computer to a blank “New Post” page staring at me
  • select some music and check my phone
  • put bread in the toaster
  • check email
  • flip through Feng Shui gardening book that happens to be within reach
  • toast is ready
  • take a call from my sister, check email, scan every page of my website and think about things I need to change (while talking on the phone)
  • etc, etc, etc…
SO, you get the picture and I am sure you can relate. When I saw myself running this program I had to take a deep breath, close the computer, and get some fresh air. I wondered am I just procrastinating? am I getting in my own way, for fear of success, or do I actually believe on some level that multitasking is more efficient and a sign of a capable person?

I am not totally sure what the true root is, but I do know that multitasking, for me, is a by product of not being mindful, and that it causes me more stress than anything.

So, I challenge myself, and you, dear readers, to attempt, if even in small doses, to unitask. Imagine doing only one thing at a time. Imagine it!!! Investigate and see what happens. I would love to hear what you learn!

If you need more encouragement, this is a great article:
