やらなきゃいけないことをやりたくないとって、他のことをめちゃくちゃ集中してできるよね？
あの集中力ってなんなの？
例えば英語の勉強をしなくてはいけないのに、そんなに気が乗っていない。ちょっとだけのつもりで特に興味のないYouTubeを6時間ぶっ通しで見たりできる。
理由は明らかに英語の勉強からの逃避で、めちゃくちゃ集中して見ていたYouTubeの内容も後からは思い出せない。YouTubeが見たかったわけではないからね。英語の勉強がしたくなかっただけなんだ。
This is a HOSHINOYA MADE IN JAPAN Radio. episode 29, "The Curious Intensity When Avoiding Tasks: Exploring the Nature of Focus".
You know, when you've got stuff you're supposed to do but you just don't feel like doing it, you end up super focused on other things, right?
What's up with that kind of focus though?
Like, take studying English for instance. You know you gotta do it, but you're not really in the mood. So, you end up watching random YouTube videos for like six straight hours, even if you're not all that interested in them.
It's clearly just avoiding the English study, and looking back, you can't even remember what those YouTube videos were about. It's not like you actually wanted to watch YouTube. It's just that you didn't want to study English.
