There's a difference between 'inhumanly' and 'inhumanely' and it really changes the context of this meme. I can't stop giggling about it.

That amount of stress when you rush a deadline isn't humane for sure.

That only works until you realize you’re doing really well, then you think about that too much and completely lose your flow.

If you can determine your hyper focus triggers with time and practice you can trigger them on demand. I'm no expert and am sure it doesn't work for everyone but it works for me.

Hi, could you explain how you found what triggers your hyperfocus? If you're not comfortable with public comments you can DM me instead.

Dumb luck. It wasn't a thoughtful act of discovery. For me it's music (or people) while doing things using my strengths.

Strengths Finder 2.0 is the best resource for finding out what our strengths are. And these are the tools or methods we should use to solve problems and accomplish tasks as much as possible.

For me doing those with people or with loud music triggers to hyper focus every single time. But it took years to figure it out.

We are like the roombas of people.
