Harriett, change your language just slightly and you can reframe the whole
phenomenon. How about "it's a good thing to be wondering about inside
one's mind." I think there's a fine line between the "fog" state and the
state where your mind is constantly exploring the "impossible." For me a
simple diagnostic test is: does 'blank' [and for this evaluation I would
insert 'daydreaming'] hinder my performance, or am I more creative as a
result.

I realize this is rather simplistic for the level this list functions on,
but sometime simple learning experiences are as much an "aha" as the
complex ones.
