Yes! I like it! I'm adding loud music and car dancing to my arsenal.
My mind usually starts to wander a few bars into the song half the time though. I think I need a top ten "intense things to obsess about". It's like my brain needs to go through the story from beginning to end.
So BASE jumping would start with the "putting on the gear" narrative, move into "traveling to the location", climbing, preparing to jump, etc.
I'm betting I get side tracked/bored with the topic before it actually gets to the jumping. The idea just needs to be intense and involved to keep my attention... then I think I can back off the emotion. Like I need...
*Intensity
*Complicated storyline
*Gradual distraction/boredom from the topic and trail off into something less intense.
I think that's why T's suggestions don't do it for me. Not complicated enough. I need something intense with a storyline.
