I read on the Internet, and we all know everything on the Internet is true, the human brain cannot handle two tasks at one time. The brain concentrates on one thing and that's it. So don't get frustrated and impatient anymore. You can only do so much at one time. <br />Wait, does this mean I should not be using furrowed brow and clenched fists anymore?

It's always a struggle to fight the urge to want to "have done" rather than keep "doing." Some of this, I think, comes from the frantic pace at which we live our lives.
