I can tell when something is going to make me hyperfocus on it. So if I have the time to do it I’ll indulge. Usually it’s until the end of the day.
If it’s at work that’s until 6-7pm when my internal clock says go home. If it’s at home it’s until I’m about to pass out. Usually at least an hour. Typically 2-3 depending on how interested I am. But sometimes longer…. Much longer.
