Answer:

Personal Opportunity Cost - Spare non drive time sacrifised

It has happened to me, on my birthday, when I was over excited with the gifts I got from my friends, my dad called me to take his car to a filling station, and add petrol, so I can use his car to have fun with friends, out of excitement, I took my shoe in place of the car key. I noticed my sense has received me, when I entered the car to start it. At that moment the frequency of my brain has been altered because of over excitement.
