Metaphorical Narrative
Water runs.
Mind drifts to speeches, arguments, fantasies.
The task — washing — halts as imagination hijacks presence.
Core Insight
Everyone has wandered here: daydreams turn simple tasks into long escapes.
Proof Snapshot: Cognitive science shows task-unrelated thoughts consume working memory, reducing efficiency and leaving tasks incomplete.
Liberation comes when the drift is named as escape. Presence returns when the task is finished.
Identity Line: I refuse to waste presence in escape. Observer completes what begins.
Saturday Experiment
When drifting mid-task, narrate: “Escape spotted.”
Return to finish without delay.
Sunday Reflection
Where else this week did they escape mid-task?
What changed when they spotted and returned?
What identity strengthens when Observer completes?
