I feel like this is underestimating my capacity to get so absolutely engrossed in and distracted by my own imagination that I don’t even pay attention to what my eyes are seeing. I can’t exactly turn off my thoughts after all.
I am like that. I have a job, I can’t do it most of the time because I’m on Lemmy or Reddit or YouTube or Overwatch, etc., but if I really really need to do it, I close everything, and open it again, then close it again and basically torture myself into focusing on it, and by the time I realize, I’m kinda focused on it, until I’m too tired and then that’s it, I can’t focus any longer for the rest of the day.
No. I think they covered it with that study about electrocuting yourself instead of being alone with your thoughts.
I would probably give it a shot too. I used to electrocute (might be the wrong word) myself when I worked at BK. The shake machine had a metal part you could touch while mixing it and it gave you a little shock.
