Counting backwards from 100

Here is a very simple exercise to reinforce that your mind can only actively process one thought at a time. I want you to count backwards from 100 in threes. But at some point get someone to throw in a random simple mathematical equation. So start, ‘100, 97, 94’, and then at 91 get the person to say ‘2 × 3?’ and then keep counting backwards until 82. OK, now stop. So what has happened here is you started counting back in threes, then once the simple mathematical equation was given, you stopped counting and gave the answer, ‘6’. Then straight away, you had to remember where you left off counting and continued on. ‘88, 85, 82.’ Not everyone is amazing at maths but even if you were and could do the equation quickly, you would still have to stop counting and say 6 before resuming counting down. You couldn’t say 6 and 91 at the same time. It just reinforces that your mind can only actively process one thought at a time.
