There are limits in human abilities. We actually don't multi-task very well at all. Concentration is key.
This means that the scarcity of time should kill all illusions of the potential to do it all. There just isn't enough time to get good at many things.
If we could fork our intelligence, learn and do multiple things at once, even if only virtually, and then merge the result, we'd get closer to the ideal. Unfortunately, this is still science fiction.
