I had a great lunch with Gail this Monday, she gave me a ride after we finished. While she drove, her phone ring. And she said, oh, I won’t pick up this one. I asked her, is it because you are driving? ‘No’, She said, ‘Because I am with you, so I will be hundred percent with you!’

I felt warm after I heard her say so, and I felt it is a great lesson to learn: Be in the present moment, be 100% in it.

I think everyone is overloaded in Sillicon Valley, so we all learned to become multi-tasking. How many of you working while chating online? How many of you watch TV while eating? I am good supportor of Multi-tasking, but a great thing I learned from Gail is – Don’t multi-taking while another person is in front of you! Furthermore, be in the present moment, whatever you are doing, put 100% of you inside. Feel it, enjoy it and get 100% out of it.

So here is my applogy to any friends to saw me multi-tasking before and here is my promise to all my friends today-

If I am with you, I will stop everything I am doing, and be fully with you! Let us both enjoy the current moment!
