Time and Attention

NOTE

Beware the Attention Traps

Attention traps are repetitive behaviors that hinder focus and can cause stress. These include the road attention trap, where individuals become preoccupied with their online identities, sometimes prioritizing them over their real-world selves. Social media engagement often leads to significant time loss, as people intend to spend only a few minutes but instead find themselves caught for hours. Lastly, the sunk cost trap occurs when individuals continue with unproductive activities because of the time already invested, even when results are lacking.
