“All profound distraction opens certain doors. You have to allow yourself to be distracted when you are unable to concentrate.”
— Julio Cortazar
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, when you're really distracted and can't focus, it can actually lead you to new and unexpected opportunities. For example, imagine a student who is trying to study for a big test but just can't seem to concentrate. They might start doodling or daydreaming, and suddenly they come up with a great idea for an art project or a fun story to write. This distraction has opened a new door for them. Instead of fighting the distraction and getting frustrated, they use it in a positive way. In the same way, if you're working on a problem and can't find a solution, allowing your mind to wander might help you see things from a different angle. By not forcing yourself to concentrate too hard, you might discover new passions or solutions you wouldn't have thought of before.
