Attention is a scarce resource that needs to be protected. ?? Your attention isn't infinite – it's your most valuable currency in today's world. Every notification. Every "quick question." Every context switch. They're all making silent withdrawals from your mental bank account. Think about it: ?? We consume more information in a day than our ancestors did in a year. ?? The average worker is interrupted every 11 minutes. ?? It takes 23 minutes to fully regain focus after each interruption. Protecting your attention isn't being antisocial. It's being strategic. Try this: 1??Focus on one thing at a time and avoid the temptation to multitask. 2??Post “do not disturb” signs that let others know not to interrupt or distract you. 3??Schedule specific moments for quiet time and treat them as non-negotiable appointments. 4??Designate a specific area at the office, home and on the road as your own quiet workplace. 5??Say “no, not now” more often by having concrete criteria of what is actually urgent and important. Your best work deserves your undivided attention.

"Don't Do That." I really needed to hear that! The global war on attention is in full swing and, while most of us only focus on fighting it between our children and their devices, we need to focus on how that war is affecting us as adults. Instead of checking devices, "think about where you are going, or what just happened." Remarkable - yet simple - advice. Thank you, Joseph McCormack! Reminded me of the great exchange from Alice in Wonderland: if we don't know where we are going, then any road will get us there.
