How often do we hear this kind of conversation at a supermarket: Honey, what would you like to eat tonight? Chicken, fish??? Imagine a world without mobile phones (not really that long ago!), this same person would use some brain power, make some clever deductions such as price, special offers, freshness etc. and purchase. Some how we no longer seems to want to use our brain.

Multi-tasking is another term that irritates me. Because we are being pushed to multi-tasking, in reality we are multi-HOPPING. We only have time and resources to take care of or look into the surface of whatever we must multi-task, move on to the next task, and rarely have the time to dig deeper and provide ‘total’ solutions. Is that efficient and effective problem-solving?. Yet we accept them (not me) because society is expecting us to able to response quickly to whatever that comes along.
