[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1162501"] On behalf of all movies and the people who worked incredibly hard to make them, can I just say "Make up your f'ing mind! EITHER watch a movie OR work on your Mac -- don't do both, because then you're not really doing very well at either!" Movies (or at least good ones, and of course this applies to other things as well) require CONCENTRATION to really enjoy. Likewise, doing your best work also requires focus. You know, FOCUS? That thing people keep telling you you need to do more of? :) Stop multitasking so much. Humans aren't really very good at it: [url=http://blogs.hbr.org/bregman/2010/05/how-and-why-to-stop-multitaski.html]How (and Why) to Stop Multitasking - Peter Bregman - Harvard Business Review[/url] (plenty more evidence of this where that came from, btw) Just put down the Mac and enjoy the movie. Or forget the movie and get to work. But pick one at a time, and give it your full attention. That's the key to really enjoying life. [/QUOTE]
