      I only seem to be able to focus on one thing at a time. At the moment it's writing so I have 3 pieces coming out soon. My house is a mess

      I try to set myself schedules in which I do some researching/writing and some household stuff every day but it just never happens.

      I think I'm going to have to go with this and make Mondays and Fridays cleaning & practical stuff days & write Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.

      My best friend called my inability to in any way multi-task 'man-like' & of course, I called her out on her casual sexism (No, I didn't).

          Did you tell her research shows that nobody, in fact, actually multitasks, despite claims to the contrary?

          So much depends on how you define it. I know I will do the washing up whilst the toast toasts whilst Dave will stand & watch it.

          Of course, my attempts to multi-task - tweeting whilst cooking & supervising homework usually results in burnt food.

          Is it sexism if it is true? I definitely haven't mastered multitasking. I'm still working on unitasking.

          Multitask (verb) - the act of doing many things at the same time, poorly.

          And you didn't take the opportunity to mansplain how multi-tasking means you do nothing 100%?!?

          As a man, I am not offended by this (hence my pinned tweet). Multitasking is difficult when you allow yourself to become totally absorbed.

          All my male colleagues say claim sex related innate inability to pay attention at two things at the same time.

          They claim it is not sexist if it presupposes female superiority.
