Why is My Attention Span Getting Worse?

Описание: Is your attention getting shorter? Do you feel like it's slipping away into the endless social media algorithm void?

I feel your pain. So, let's talk about to some old school COD gaming commentary against a Black Ops 6 video that is 18 minutes long. Boy oh boy, irony can be so cruel can't it. What's actually interesting is that it's also not really your fault if you can't hold your focus for longer spans of time. Turns out, we're wired to be alert to have short attention abilities to spot important things in an instant. Danger. Bears. Kim Kardashian. And it's our environment that is now tapping into that.

But for the brave, can you undertake such a challenge? Can you really just sit there and watch a video for that long?

I can't.

But hey, maybe you can put this on in the background and do something productive like going for a walk or completing some chores. Maybe it might help because the good news is that despite our environment hijacking us, we can still learn how to benefit from longer spans of attention which more of than not, give us the more meaningful and enjoyable parts of life.

So, join me talking everything on what I've discovered about our attention and hopefully it's bearable enough that it will hold yours in doing so.
