I agree with you, Gardener. Doing the WR really well requires a mind shift, in a way. Once I start to "do", I lose my mojo a bit.

When I'm reviewing, I will actually sometimes say out loud: "I'm reviewing, just reviewing...only reviewing...." and that is just enough to cause my brain to break away from the drift toward doing. It works very well when I'm processing, too.

Fortunately, I work at home so nobody hears the looney stuff I say to myself.
