You know how powerful a laser is. Immense power can be focused on one area. Human focus is the same. We can do more than one thing at a time providing they are not  too difficult or don’t require concentration. We can do one thing very well if we focus our attention. Driving and texting can be a fatal decision. Some of the world’s most talented people have learned to focus their attention on one activity.
