Focus

I have thousands of compelling ideas - a dozen or more I'm sure would make a fulfilling life's work for me. I want to be able to choose one and stick with it for the couple of decades it will take to get me tenure at a good university in a warm climate. This may require honing my intuition to pluck the right one out of the air like a fly, or building up a logical framework to reveal the optimal choice, but even if it's just repeated blows to the head until I can only remember one option I'll have achieved the goal.
