Meditation and the Information Diet

I wonder how we avoid the noise in a world that's feeling increasingly like it's speeding past the human level experience. I'm very much in favor of disconnecting every now and then. We need to be extremely careful about the food we put into our mind, the information that we consume. And also, you know, I write books. Books demand a long span of attention. It's not 10 seconds or a minute. Even an unstoppable last it's a long book and on purpose. There is a lot of value in learning how to immerse yourself in a story without align your mind to be constantly distracted by the next thing.
