Multi-tasking

I just remember what I learn in our "Favorite" Engaging Mind lesson about Intelligence.

Is the ability of "multi-tasking" considered as intelligence? or it should be the ability to focus?

In reality, we canNOT "multi-task", i.e. perform multiple tasks at one time. We can only do one task at a time.

The term "multi-tasking" should be replaced by "flipping between tasks".

The ability of "flipping between tasks" measures how many tasks can you flip within a certain period of time, or how fast can you flip between tasks.

How many tasks have you flipped today?

I flipped a lot and got nothing done.... as usual.
