Week 5 Post 2

I was really happy to have this question, because this is something I think about often! I have discovered recently, that when others talk I find my thoughts totally drifting off on what I need to do that day, something that reminded me of another thing, etc. And I feel horribly because it’s really not that their boring me (well, on rare occasions I might be if I’m being honest), but because I have to really focus! I’m a daydreamer, and I’ve noticed myself doing that more and more as I’ve gotten older. I can say though, if someone is confiding in me or I know this talk is “important” then I really hone in on what they’re saying. Ninety-percent of the time I could write down most of what someone has told me, but there at the times that I drift off into “la la land”. I’m so glad this question was brought up, because I think being more aware of the fact that I do it will help me to really focus on when someone is talking to me!
