What do you always do to get going when you feel like you are spacing out? (lemmings.world)

I don't know if this was the right way to phrase my question.

I have this problem where I space out every now and then, I just can't shake it off and start doing the things I should be doing.

For example - If I'm in a room with a bunch of people who I should be talking to, I will most likely speak a few times and then I'd space out and look like Kanye's Blank Stare meme.

Why do you think you space out? It doesn't happen to me often, but when it does it's usually because my surroundings aren't very interesting, and my own train of thought is far more engaging. Or maybe I'm exhausted and don't have the energy to stay engaged.
