    Hehe, we’ve all been hyperfocused on the difficult part of a task and missed the simple part before. The part you didn’t have to think about because it was so simple comparatively…

    I’ve had plenty of times where I was part way through putting all the parts into a computer case only to realise I hadn’t moved out the old case and brought in the new case yet… was just so focused on the main puzzle.

      You ever see someone take a door off the hinges, measure meticulously, make a perfect cut, mount the doggy door exactly centered and level the perfect height from the doors edge… only to realise its in the wrong end of the door when they go to re-mount it?

      No you havent, because I made sure nobody saw.
