This is about you, not them.

Give it the slightest chance and this modern world will convince you to devote every ounce of attention to cheap glitter and empty shadows. Don’t blame people, platforms, and media. They don’t capture your attention. That’s a convenient phrase to evade the truth.

Anything that has your attention is because you gave it your attention. You can continue giving it as you are now or you can cut it off, minimize it, or redirect it.

An immediate way to regain control of your life, both internally and externally, is to control your distribution of attention. Where your attention goes your mind, emotions, and experience follows.

Discipline is the shortcut. Do the work.
