1.6 Focus

Course Overview

In 2010, Harvard psychologists Matthew Killingsworth and Daniel Gilbert discovered that 47% of our waking hours are spent thinking about something totally unrelated to what’s currently right in front of us. While it’s true that smartphones, tablets, and social media are vying for our attention now more than ever, it’s not the technology that is making focus difficult, it’s the attention we give to technology. For most of us, while it’s unrealistic to abandon all technology and still exist as a functioning human, it is possible for us to build our ability to control our relationship with technology rather than the other way around. This course is designed to help you break habits that are draining your energy and depleting your attention, so you can increase your focus in ways that drive both results and peace of mind.
