A small practice for the side-screen weather

A practical exercise: Check the forecast once and close the tab until the paragraph is done.

Original practice · Optional exercise · Attention with edges

Choose a low-stakes example you can change without affecting another person’s private information or commitments.

  1. Describe the current situation in one sentence. The example here is: A weather tab keeps pulling attention away from a paragraph.
  2. Check the forecast once and close the tab until the paragraph is done.
  3. Compare the result with the difficulty you named. Write one concrete observation.
  4. Keep, adapt, or stop the experiment. A note about why you stopped is a valid result.
