Three Facts from Wallace D Wattles in The Science of Getting Rich:
Fact 1.  You cannot  live fully in body without good food, comforable clothing, and warm shelter, and without freedom from excessive toil.  Rest and relaxation are also necessary to your physical life.
Fact 2.  You cannot live fully in mind without books and time to study them, without oppportunity for travel and observation, nor without intellectual companionship.  To live fully in mind, you must have intellectual recreations, and must surround yourself with all the objects of art and beauty you are capable of using and appreciating, 
Fact 3.  To live fully in soul, you must have love; and love is denied expression by poverty.  Our highest happiness is found in the bestowal of gifts to those we love - love finds its most natural and spontaneous expression in giving.  If you have nothing to give, you cannot fill your place as a husband or father, wife or mothter, as a citizen or as a man or woman.

Believe in love at first sight, date, or meeting.  Believe in love, period.  There are no limits in spirit, only mind, and love is highly spiritual.

re Multi-tasking:  For there is one thing that the contemplative person is able to do that the multitasker isn't: he or she can hold their attention on any one thing easier than someone who is overstimulated. They can look deeply into and discover the essence of things. Indeed, it is in the holding of our attention on any one thing that all things are revealed to us.
