"[Focus on what want and what is helpful...distract away - by keeping busy on something else - from what don't want and what is not helpful:] It is observed at sea that men are never so much disposed to grumble and mutiny as when least employed [inactivity]. Hence an old captain, when there was nothing else to do, would issue the order to 'scour the anchor'." - Samuel Smiles
