Being Present (AKA Multi-Tasking is a Myth)

The ability to be present is, it seems to me, a talent. It’s a hard skill to develop and hone.

I don’t know if that’s the case for you, but it’s certainly been the case for me, something I’ve personally struggled with over the years.

Part of this is a tendency to take on multiple priorities. Part of this is a tendency to obsess over a situation or a task, to let it absorb me entirely.

Omerisms Podcast - Episode 59

This month's podcasts discusses the idea of happiness. It's such an important ideal and the next few podcasts talk about how we define it, grapple and fight for it, and ultimately, continue to pursue it.

Today's episode is from something I wrote about back in 2018, when Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain - two people who had it all - took their own lives. I discuss how happiness is never what it appears to be and that we don't know the roof is leaking until we're on the inside.
