Single-tasking: doing one thing at a time, well

Single-tasking is deliberately focusing on one task until you reach a stopping point, rather than juggling several. It is faster and more accurate than multitasking, which is really just rapid, costly switching.

The hard part is resisting the pull of other tasks. Capturing stray thoughts the instant they appear lets you stay on one thing without losing the others.

Awakening Note supports single-tasking with one-hotkey capture, so you can stay on the current task and trust the rest is recorded.
