What is your temporal persistence? Like if you have some project you are putting off while trying to mull over a solution, how long do you generally keep that in mind until you find a solution or it fades from memory, replaced by something more productive. I’m not really talking about consciously shifting focus. I’m talking about the point when a project gets shelved unintentionally; you still hope to get back to it but usually do not. What is your temporal persistence like? Perhaps you complete every project, meaning you are less abstracted and that is fine too.

    What kind of a thought are we talking here?

    If you mean that face my boss was making when I told her about my weekend, and what it could possibly mean, like, what if she really disapproved of something, but what? Maybe that I told her that I went out of state? Maybe she thinks I just went all the way out there to get weed. I think you can get that there now. What if she thinks I’m a stoner and suspects I’m coming to work high every day?

    Then about 6mo- 25 years.

    If you mean making my mortgage payment, then, about 45 seconds and gone forever.
