Humans Can Only Think About Four Things At Once, Study Says
Many executives see themselves as prodigious multitaskers -- checking e-mail while simultaneously talking on the phone, eyeing stock quotes, and performing all sorts of other busywork. But they're probably doing a lousy job if they're trying to focus on more than four things at once, a recent study maintains.

Multi-tasking is a woman thang! My wife can talk on the phone, play a computer game, watch a TV program, and crochet...all at once and never miss a beat on any of it. Men, on the other hand, only do real well when they concentrate on one thing at a time.
I never wore a cape, but I still have my dog tags.

Being hammered six ways from sideways in the business world is normal today - the key is being able to prioritize and focus on one thing at a time.
We all have learned that at one time or another.
