Multitasking?

Sorry,
I have been busy lately.
As usual I have to "multitask" during my college study hours.
Juggling between assignments, activities and my personal life.

What activities you may ask.
Well, I play chess for my college and
I am also the president for the chess club.
Recently we won two competitions,
my team got 1st place in one of those tournaments
and in the other tournament, we end up finishing with 2nd place.
I kinda stop playing chess ever since after I was 17,
only decided to start playing it again recently.

So, yea, about multitasking.
Honestly, I suck at multitasking.
Partly because men have lesser capability to multitask as to compare to women.
This is because females have a wider corpus callosum that allows them to connect their left and
right brain easily which allows them to multitask. 

And I am more of a person who works better by focusing one thing at the time.
So, how do I manage my time?
Seriously, I really focus one task at a time.
Like in one day, I will write down the tasks that I need to accomplish by the end of the day.
And those tasks are all related.
It is very important for me to maintain the "flow" while doing those tasks.

I cannot work on non-related tasks continuously
as I have the tendency to really focus on to something once I get the hang of it.
If you are someone like me, then you will probably do the same.

I don't believe in multitasking as it will affect the quality of my work.
However, if a situation arise where I have to multitask, then I will.
But quality will be compromise.

So, my advice is that try not to multitask so much,
you may end up biting more than you can chew.hahax..
