Thus people who are inspired and work ten hours at a stretch
without noticing the time---in samadhi, flow, or whatever---are
exercising more will power than someone who looks at a project for
ten minutes, talks on the phone, daydreams, sips coffee, returns to
the project, looks out the window, hums to herself, returns to the
project, checks E-mail, etc
Ahhhh....
all said without knowing what is really going on in the thought processes of
the One who is looking, talking, daydreaming, sipping, returning, looking,
humming, returning, checking...
all the while that subconscious will is busier that the other person's
conscious will--and thus the one zoning out until the fourth cup of coffee will
end up having the project finished before the fifth--and long before the tenth
hour of the conscious will, powerful though it may be.
One of those sorts,
