Today on audible I am listening to* Stolen Focus by Johann Hari * read by Johann Hari.
irl I listen to, watch or read the video/movie/documentary or book 3 times if I want it to stick.
That looks interesting! I have the attention span of a goldfish these days, which is hugely frustrating. Does it offer some solutions?
it offers a million solutions 😊
the main one is trust your gut, you know when you are doing something you shouldn't and you know what to do
of course , that doesn't make it easy
I know I'm really weak, that's why I have close to zero apps on my phone, I don't use phone banking nor do I use any email. No shopping apps, no myki, no reddit and i'm not on any other social media, I don't look at news, nothin' . If I go out away from my lap top I'm away from all the computer stuff. I'm using my phone even less now that I got myself a lovely new watch.
My focus is still not great but that's a ptsd thing and a loss of practice thing.
