How Much Do You ‘Zone Out’ While Reading?




How Much Do You ‘Zone Out’ While Reading?

Everyone zones out from time-to-time while reading, but how much is normal?
Everyone has had the experience of reading a few pages of a book and then suddenly noticing none of it has gone in
So we are often unaware that our minds are wandering from what we are reading, even when it's a gripping Amazon bestseller rather than a boring textbook
The only time their minds weren't wandering was when they were having sex
If our minds wander only 13% of the time when we're reading, that's actually pretty good compared to an average of 50% for everyday life
