An interesting post from the GapingVoid blog!
Fight for your right – to focus
TL:DR
QUOTE
We used to read books. Now we scroll. We used to debate. Now we rage-post. The internet promised connection but delivered fragmentation. Of our own minds.
We could go the way of the young people – delete social media, go on a digital detox. But those are just new ways of avoiding the real work.
It’s not that we’re online too much. It’s that we’ve stopped choosing. We consume whatever the algorithm serves up instead of intentionally deciding what deserves our focus.
The opportunity is straightforward enough: decide what matters and seek that out – both IRL and online.
If attention is our scarcest resource, it’s time to stop giving it away for free.
