If one cannot manage their attention, they will be prune to distractions.
Click baits, binge-forever-scrolling, video games, unnecessary chats, unnecessary SM comments, notifications from different apps etc.
I switch off all notifications, except emails, which have been streamed down to important ones. No Social media 💯, only reading online, in books and watching intellectual videos on YT.
Thank you. Ironically I am grateful the algorithm brought this to my attention, with perfect timing. I could not have articulated this better, but have been pondering it all in pieces for years.
This will be the first post I have shared on this platform, and is worthy of being the very last.
This has been one of the most interesting readings I had in a while.
The world is turning into something I don’t like seeing and worry for my daughters growing into it, but this is the kind of approach I intend to take, act instead of react, help them build a solid foundation for a harsh world they’ll grow into, steer away from the instant gratification narrative but focus on consistency, structure and determination. The only way is through, like it or not, it is what it is and that’s a powerful affirmation to accept.
Thank you for putting this together and keeping it free to share with as many readers, subscribers or not, that you can reach.

Discernment Is a word that comes to mind when I read this. Most of the online experience is noise.
