How We Lost Our Focus (and why it should scare you) [1:12:22] (www.youtube.com)

I know, I know, the duration. Not just pushing the community rules beyond the breaking point, but a 72 minutes video on focus, of all things? Bold move.

On the flipside, consider: You can already start listening while cooking, also, you should not rush eating. I rest my case.

Blurb:

Distraction is one of the hottest button issues today. Everywhere there seems to be assaults on our focus. Recently I came across two wonderful videos by the inimitable Jared Henderson (‪@_jared‬) on our declining focus rates, and it took me on a long research journey into the true terrifying effects of our limited focus.

This was a great listen for me on my morning walk. It gave a lot to think about and it helped me understand the feelings of stagnation and frustration at myself I've been feeling these last few months.

Thank you kindly for sharing. Made a difference for me, and I'll be sharing with others within my personal circles.
