Turning up is a low bar that frequently gets counted as the whole job. You can sit through a lesson, a shift or a dinner with your attention entirely somewhere else, and the hours pass with nothing reaching you and nothing coming out of you. The chair was occupied. That is all that happened.
Choose which rooms you intend to be properly in and make it deliberate. Phone away, one question ready, eyes on whoever is talking. One room a day is enough to change what you remember of a week.
In which room are you present in body only?
Free, with nothing to buy inside it.
