Some days I can focus for hours. Other days, I bounce between thoughts like a browser with 30 tabs open and nothing loading. I used to feel bad about this. Now, I just laugh. The human brain was never meant to be a machine.
So I go gentle. I write a few words. I stare at a tree. I come back later. And honestly? Some of my clearest thoughts arrive when I’m doing absolutely nothing “productive.”
Attention takes trust. And patience. I’m practicing both.
