If you remember, a pinball game works by,
you pull back on the plunger, release it, and
a ball goes boinking out, bouncing around on
the rubber bumpers, and that's how you get points.
So, here's your brain, with the ears right here, and the eyes looking upwards.
And we can lay that pinball machine right down inside it.
So, there you go.
There's the analogy for the focused mode.
The blue bumper bumpers here are placed very close to one another.
See this orange pattern here towards the top?
It represents a familiar thought pattern.
Maybe involving something simple like adding some numbers, or
more advanced ideas like literary
criticism or calculating electromagnetic flows.
You think a thought, boom, it takes off, moves smoothly along.
And then, as it's bouncing around on the bumpers, you're
able to figure out the problem you're trying to solve, or.
The concept you're trying to understand that's
related to something you're rather familiar with.
