Jason Fried on multitasking:

Things suck when you don’t give them your full attention.

I’m not thrilled with the work I’ve been doing lately.

This isn’t a breakthrough, it’s just a reminder. If you want to do great work, focus on one thing at a time. Finish it and move on to the next thing.

Quickly reminds me of my own realization that multitasking is often really just managing distractions.
