“Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

.Polychronicity
The word “polychronicity” is a term that describes people who prefer to work on multiple activities at the same time. Examples of polychronic behaviors include: cooking food while watching television, browsing the internet while driving a car, and talking on the phone while sitting in meetings. Polychronicity is in contrast to those who prefer monochronicity (doing one thing at a time). The polychronic-monochronic concept was first developed by Edward T. Hall in 1959 in his anthropological studies of time use in different cultures.
