A matter of focus

"It is easy not to see what one is not looking for." (Michael Lanyard, in Alias the Lone Wolf, by Louis Joseph Vance)

This is a cardinal principle in matters of deception, both manual and spiritual. It also explains why so many things are overlooked - we were not looking for them. Human beings find it difficult to focus on more than one thing at a time.
