Julian, so good to see you posting again. I look so forward to seeing on the meetings soon!

Something I came to realize yesterday was the ability women have to do two tasks at the same time, we men don't have that multitasking skill quite mastered. Little did I know was that indeed scientifically speaking, women's brain have double the chance of being focused on more that one thing at the same time.

Now I like you recognizing that capability of woman. I think men can do it , only in a different way. I certainly have to muliti task working at the Country House.

I woke up today to a pretty sunny day, I love sunny days, btw as I'm texting this post I'm also listening to "sunny days by Armin Vann Bureen".

Very interesting idea! I want to know what sparked this idea.

Have any sources on that? I had read the opposite. Not that men were better but that multitasking is a myth. How are we defining multitasking?

Is it spending more than 100% of your attention on something? Women can spend 100% focus on two things at once so 200%?

Seems like you can either focus 100% on one task, or divide and conquer, appropriately budget your time, energy, and resources, and say spend 25% / 25% / 25% / 25% on 4 tasks.

Here is a cool *National Geographic video: TEST YOUR BRAIN - NatGeo - Human Can't Multitasking So Well* - https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x300bt0


It's showing why texting and driving (probably the most commonly done 'multitasking') = no bueno... doesn't matter if you're a man or a woman!

Also interesting to me because mindfulness == anti-multitasking. All that samadhi or concentration meditation is really about trying to focus on only one thing at a time.

I came to realize that I'm better at keeping the track of my daily routine by writing down on paper, however being back here and reading older posts hits different.

Visited a friend yesterday and as coffee is  in our likes list, we undertook on an adventure of roasting coffee in a pot. the result, an acceptable medium roast with slight tipping traits, I felt insecure when temperature wouldn't go up as fast as I wanted even with the power at 100%,  the cause, overload of coffee, however it was an awesome experience. 

Hi Julian, welcome back to the forum.  Such a very interesting coffee exchange.  Any photos you can share with us?.

Wow now that sounds really cool. Would love to see photos of those roasted beans!

My friend took some pics and sent me this one, the sample at the top is the one I roasted and the other one was roasted by my friend's mother. Little did I know was the she's so good at it.

Good morning to you Julian, those are great photographs.  Thank you!
