I don't multi-task as much as I "perform in a tubulent environment". That is, I need to be able to focus on completing the task at hand, but part of that might involve completing secondary tasks along the way and also not letting interuptions derail me from finishing.

In my opinion, incorporating attention to detail and focus into your teaching methods is a priority. I don't see it proactive to show kids how to spread themselves too thin...we all learn it soon enough as it is.

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.
