Author, guru, and speaker Deepak Chopra, who has been constantly working on improving mindfulness, said that that multitasking is the only skill that gets worse with practice.

Chopra is apparently expanding into online classes called Timeless You.

The author has made a foray into the field of online education by using a MOOC platform called Siminars, to create and charge for a class on handling aging, the Tech Crunch reported.

Chopra discussed a networked method that could sense the mood of huge groups of people, allowing for a unique method for voting on global questions.
