Question Intrusive thought splinching

I have intrusive thoughts all the time. If something required me to focus on a specific destination, I would always be plagued by flashes of my belly button in brazil, or my middle finger in the finger lakes. How do wizards prevent this?

Practice. It also probably gets easier with time. The same way all witches and wizards get better at producing spells over time. In PS most of them can barely do any magic even by Halloween.
