So, what's my point here? My point is that there is no such a thing as multitasking...I say it's a myth. You can only do one thing at a time with full concentration and full attention. Anything else you might be doing in the background is called "background" tasking, where you don't need to focus and you use your subconscious mind to achieve it
This is a very interesting concept. Background tasking. The problem as I see it is that background tasking can not be done properly (Unless it is a really automatic-kinda task) and it makes our main task to be low quality.
Yeah, it's true. If it's your first time to drive a car, driving won't be considered as a "background" task for you. But if it's your 1 millionth time to drive a car, it is considered a "background" task, and you could be focusing on something else while driving like a conversation with the person next to you.
