183 // Putting Our Attention on the Beautiful Call of Our Lives with Johann Hari’s Stolen Focus


Listen Later

Having trouble paying attention? We all are. In this episode, we discuss Johann Hari’s book, Stolen Focus, and outline the 12 things that are stealing our ability to focus in our modern lives. It ISN’T a matter of discipline for which we need to constantly beat ourselves up for. There are huge systemic forces that are targeting our attention spans. The good news is: we can get it back. We can restore our attention spans individually and as a society. This episode has lots of eye opening research and ideas to come back to life and start living it instead of rushing around in our minds and in our tech.
