With the increasing pace of life in modern society, people are busy doing so many things that someone starts to doubt whether they can really achieve any thing out of these demanding tasks. While from my point of view, I believe that people are trying to dealing with more things than before does not necessarily harm the consequences, due to the adoption of high technology, time management, and full exploration of people's potentiality. Above all, one reason I hold is that high technology does raise the productivity of human beings, so that one person can handle much more work than before. For instance, the prevalence of computer and kinds of software, such as SAS, SPSS, has lifted up the efficiency of researchers dramatically. Since when doing analysis, what researchers need to do is just to input the original data into the computer and to switch several simple buttons. Well, without such kind of software, it may probably take a person years of time to calculate the results, even the amount of data is not so much. With the help of computer and some other facilities, such as the rapid transportation, like airplane and cars, people can finish their job within a limited time. Another reason why I disagree with the statement is that people nowadays are much more concerned about time management. While people just didn't care about time until watch came into being until 19th century, people now count time almost they do everything, even when eating, walking, or bathing. Why? Because they want to manage their time well in order that they can accomplish more. I have discovered that many students are doing much better at making schedules and trying to stick to them. In addition, I hold the opinion that we have much more potential than we can perceive now. Even though we may feel busy it is hard for us to finish several things simultaneously, the result is likely to bring about miracle if we can try harder and in a right way. That is also why people are often surprised with their own achievements that they can not even imagine before. Well, though I disagree with the saying that people can do few things well when they are busy doing many things, I still believe that work is not the whole story in life. We should consider about other things, like pleasure or hobbies. Work and pleasure together can make a more enjoyable life. And much more probably, we can do well when we do one thing or two at the same time. In conclusion, considering about the factors increasing people's productivity and efficiency in dealing with jobs, I don't agree with the statement that if people busy doing many things, few thins can be done well.
