the curse of the uni-tasker

Mark Twain has a quote that goes something like "we have 2 ears and 1 mouth so we should do double the listening"

focusing on one task at a time makes a good listener.
a really good listener is doing only one thing: paying attention. listening.
but society values the multi-tasker.
there are no awards for the good listener as there are for the person who can do it all at once.
