Achieving a focused state or 'groove' involves a gradual process where the brain state becomes more defined over time, requiring practice and repetition.

“I like to think I've tried to spread the gospel of of look, it's going to take a little bit of warming up. Your mind's going to flip to other things. I mean, and you can drop into a groove. I mean, I think the the really interesting research on both the hypothalamus, but also these these higher brain states, if you will, that the models say that there's sort of like an an attractor uh model where, you know, you sort like your your brain state is sort of like a ball bearing on a flat surface that's kind of moving around and the ball bearing is moving and then over time it becomes more and more concave and eventually focus you drop into a groove. But that takes time. It takes reps.”
