# A clear mind is needed to focus without distractions.

* p.16 "Only if nothing else is lingering in our working memory and taking up valuable mental resources can we experience what Allen calls a “mind like water” - the state where we can focus on the work right in front of us without getting distracted by competing thoughts."
- A clear mind is like a clean table. There is plenty of room to work without distractions.
