In today’s world, attention is the most valuable commodity, and it’s being sold to the highest bidder. From clickbait headlines to social media algorithms, our focus is constantly being hijacked.

In this episode of Thinking Differently, I dive into the attention economy and explore how creators and media companies profit from our inability to stay focused.

But the real question is, how do we reclaim our attention and stay on track in an age of constant distractions?

I discuss how attention is rewarded more than the quality of content, why platforms use tactics like clickbait to keep us hooked, and the impact these distractions have on our lives.

I also tackle how ADHD and other conditions make focusing even harder and what strategies we can use to resist the pull of distractions.

If you’re looking to regain control of your attention, improve your focus, and achieve your goals, this episode is a must-listen.

Tune in to learn how you can fight back against the noise, focus on what matters most, and reclaim your time and energy from the distractions around you. Don’t let your attention become someone else’s commodity.
