How to Focus

• Modern society is experiencing an epidemic lack of focus. Teenagers only focus on one task for an average of 65 seconds at a time. Office workers are distracted once every three minutes.

• And I give you seven strategies for how to reclaim your ability to pay attention to the things that really matter in life.
