The Negative Frame of Attention

Sally Kohn: We're both kind of obsessed with the topic of attention, which I think is not really surprising since attention has become a little bit our most precious resource in this era where we're constantly being bombarded with information and demands and updates. She says if your attention is on something meaningless without purpose to you, then your life for that window of time is being devoted to something which is without meaning, without purpose. Kohn: The more that I can harness my attention, the more I can be sure that I'm filling my time on the planet with those things that fill my good life buckets.
