Care to explain why? I think it’s not a bad analogy: contrasting two things with the same goal, one fast paced, saturates your cognitive load , and one that leaves more space for reflecting on what is actually happening, inherently less exhausting.

I once found my phone buried in the sand on a beach with no coverage. I had a year worth of pictures on it, so I stewed in anguish for almost a day until we thought about installing a Bluetooth signal monitor on a friend’s phone . Given the sluggish update frequency, we resorted to triangulating the phone’s position. As we were pulling it from its sandy grave, I swear it felt like we were cheating fate itself.
