Getting things done?

More of a question than a statement are you getting things done or not, in itself it's a simple enough question but then there could be a whole load of different answers.
It's a bit like multi-tasking, something that us men are supposed to be useless at, but then what exactly is multi-tasking? could it be a lack of ability when it comes to concentrating fully on what needs to be done or just not being able to identify what it is that is urgent. If so then everything becomes urgent all at the same time and we all know that this idea is just silly, unless you are incredibly badly organised, in which case the whole concept of multi-tasking is thrown into disarray. Careful planning and an understanding of the situation should mean that you don't actually need to do everything at once. Lets break it down if you need to multi-task it could be that you are in a complete mess. There is no substitute for focus and concentration in today's world; this skill is becoming increasingly hard to find. Then again if it is such a great personal commodity why is it that only one gender claims to have monopoly on having the skills to carry it out.
I've given this some thought (as well as doing something else at the same time) and it is my considered opinion that multi-tasking is the ability to do lots of different things badly as opposed to doing one thing really well. Would you want a Brain Surgeon that could do great stuff with rump steak or would you prefer he concentrate on the job in hand...
