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.

    Are you asking about one’s ability to retain projects in one’s memory or how long one keeps a project before deciding it’s not gonna happen?

    Answer to one is I write it all down because I’ll forget. Answer two months.

      No intended context really. I’m thinking both in terms of projects and my neighbor that took a big chance with my life and triggered some PTSD stuff
