About this listen

The ability to concentrate deeply on a single, important task is becoming a modern-day superpower. Our environment is saturated with notifications, alerts, and endless streams of information, all vying for our most precious resource—our attention. We live in a state of continuous partial attention, flitting from email to social media to a news alert, all while trying to complete a task that requires genuine thought. This constant fragmentation of our focus leaves us feeling busy but unproductive, stressed, and mentally exhausted.

Many people believe this is an unavoidable consequence of modern life. They accept a state of chronic distraction as the new normal. But what if focus isn't a fixed trait you either have or don't? What if it's a muscle that can be trained?
