I work out of my home. I’ve turned one of my spare bedrooms into a home office. It’s very convenient. I waste no time commuting to work each day. Or so you’d think.

In actuality, when I walk from my office to the kitchen, I pass through the living room. And, every time I do, which can be 50-100 times a day, I notice my decorative zen water garden that needs more water. I notice the handle on my front door that’s slightly tilted and needs tightening. If I made a mental note and then handled it before bed, I would have a different experience on my commute to the kitchen the next morning, but I don’t, and, a little bit of my attention gets stuck on those things and is not available to me to create with.

I lose just a little bit of my attention on each incomplete item, and that’s just a fraction of the lost attention in my house. I have 10 rooms, not to mention the garage, and there are at least three things in each room that require some fixing, moving, replacing or tossing. That’s a lot of fixed (stuck) attention!
