We've been taught our whole lives that daydreaming and being unfocused is bad and there's a sense of shame in simply existing (especially in public) without device to occupy our attention. But I've been hearing so much about the science of creativity and how powerful mind wandering is. I love the point about how less knowledge increases our perception of possibility. Dr. Ellen Langer, a health psychologist, talks about this a lot especially in relation to healing. What perceive to be our health limitations is what we will experience.
Also your writing is a breeze to read, it doesn't even feel long to read!

Yes!! I also grew up both very distracted and very creative and never related them
I love Langer’s work! My old roommate was in her lab and I got to hear about the coolest things
Wow that’s soo cool!!
Now It's time for execution,as a test of the knowledge accumulated.
Thanks
Exactly!
