How do you get so engage in the tasks you are doing so you forget to eat? I suppose most people here have the opposite issue, we do not engage in the task at all and once we start, we stop doing it after a short while because we find a more interesting things to do such as eating, grab a coffee or reading HN, news etc. We would love to be able to stay on the task and not go and eat.
It's not like this for every task. But for the ones I find interesting, yes, it's nice to be able to focus like this.
Of course there are tradeoffs.
