If you achieve this you either have a job that does not require much
knowledge, or unlimited resources (i.e. time in this case). If the
latter I envy you :-)

(The former is the Zen Monk approach: cut practically everything out of
your life, so you can give your full attention to the little that is
left, such as breathing and walking.)
