*1 = Depends on interest. You can keep going until you even forget to eat or sleep.
*2 = Depends on interest. You can leave that task at any time but nothing you don't want to bother you doesn't distract you. *3 = Depends on interest. You can only stay partly focused on fun activities but everything can and will distract you. How focued are you? I am quite *1 a lot of times when it keeps to PHP, reading, writing, and such. Sometimes I can be quite distracted though, even if it is fun. So it really could also vary with me. What about you? |

For me, multitasking means take twice as long but I usually end up with better results on the tasks that I favor more for the most part.
I can stay mostly focused to say but for example PHP coding would be on several scripts all at once. Which is why probably AB2.6 is like a really huge HUGE change. |

♥2086 ✿5044 ★50 If I put in the initial effort to focus on something (fun or not) I can usually keep my focus... otherwise I just drift all over the place. (When I view the board I'm usually in drifting mode, so I often don't have enough attention span to write out an entire post...  ) |

It really depends on what's going on.
If you watched my Pokemon Colosseum quality test videos, you can tell how little I pay attention when playing games... A few good examples were: When my Espeon hit Somek's Claydol, I didn't see it was a critical hit until I was watching in post, syncing the audio streams; and the sound test video being a battle I started, having forgot what 'mons I had on my team. I nearly wiped on an easy battle from lack of attention. |

It really depends on what the task is and how important it is for it to be done. I do multitask quite often, but if it's something like a work related task with a short deadline, it gets 1000% focus. But most of the time I just focus on getting said task done so I can spend more time doing the things I want to do.
Now FUN tasks on the other hand...I can be so involved with say playing a game, that I tend to only half or even quarter hear what my wife is trying to say when she's talking to me. >.> ____________________ Sonnanja, ore no inochi wa toreneena!

I can't multitask, so I avoid it as much as possible. I can get hyper-focused on the topic at hand, but usually I spend equal time with each if I can, or I do with the more urgent things first.

In terms of visual focus, I will pick out individual pixels in a sea of everything.
In terms of mental focus... wait, what were the options again? |

I don't have a full focus on everything, but I'm more likely to keep going on something fun.
Although, I do have a bad habit of doing more than one thing at a time. The world could always use more heroes! |

For me it really just depends. I tend to strive for completion but if something of higher priority happens I will shift.
