Managing attention

On reclaiming focus from the noise

In hindsight, I really enjoyed managing my own attention in life. Notifications make noise a constant, if you let them. I miss wandering around in my own head, following my own interests, free of outside influence.

To walk this path is to experience my own life, my own way. I don't want to be told what to pay attention to, I want to actively manage my attention directly.

The return to baseline

Anything that is not top of mind should not get the opportunity to form a distraction. If I want to rediscover focus, I must return to baseline.

  • Work on a sense of self
  • Affect
  • Relationships

Be present, make choice. Live with intent. Please.
