That’s a good observation, and I think the insight is that you still think these thoughts during the day, but you avoid fixating / worrying.
Like, if you are worried about an upcoming job interview, it’s natural that you’ll think about the interview during the day. However, those thoughts will appear and disappear. You are not trying to distract yourself and avoid the thoughts, you are just learning to avoid fixation/obsession/suffering.
