Our brains love to play tricks on us by thinking. For example, the Baader Meinhof phenomenon is one of them, where it seems that the newly learned information chases us and we begin to perceive it as a “sign”. With all the prejudices out there, it’s no wonder that all of us have had attention problems. Therefore, entering the room and forgetting what you need, talking on the phone and thinking that it has been lost, or working in slippers are some of the rare examples that can happen us.
We at Meme and chill try not to ignore anything, but in spite of everything, some of the distractions that the writers and stories we get have happened in our lives.
