The Opposite of Multitasking


The opposite of multitasking is to settle your body, settle your mind, settle your environment, and settle your attention on what is left.  Settle your attention on the emotions, thoughts, and bodily sensations that remain.  When you think about something you need to get done at work today, you say, "Ah!  Thoughts about work," and then return your focus to the present moment.  If any other thoughts arise, you again notice this but gently return to the present.

In short, the opposite of multitasking is meditation.
