Perhaps remembering a happy picnic you just shared with some friends? Or did it wander to a bad place? Maybe worrying that you're working too slow, or your boss is mad at you, or the jeans that you’re wearing are unflattering. Most people find that when they’re attention wanders, it’s to a place of anxiety and fear.
