dcstep is on a distinguished road
Think of it as running on a treadmill while watching TV. You can get a benefit without focusing 100% of the time. I think it helps to focus particularly in the first couple of minutes, trying to get extremely soft (right at the cusp of the note stopping), but once you get going, there are benefits even when done casually.
