redirection
Shifting the focus
Redirection is the act of sending something to a different destination or purpose than originally intended.
Mail gets redirected to a new address; funds are redirected to other projects; a therapist helps redirect negative thoughts.
In computing, redirection routes output from one program to another location: The script redirects errors to a log file.
To redirect is to change course or focus: She redirected her energy toward finding a solution.
