Beware the Allure of Dispersion

Biological drivers can lead to a loss of focus as increasing resource availability introduces distractions. This dispersion dilutes attention away from key goals, akin to a GPS misdirecting you. While procrastination hinders entry into progress, dispersion is far more detrimental over time, creating greater opportunity costs. While procrastination has unknowable future potential, dispersion directly compromises compounding growth by diverting efforts towards minor, immediate gains across multiple areas. Ultimately, it stunts the accumulation of skills, knowledge, and creativity, revealing the substantial missed opportunities over time.
