The Work of Attention in a Distracted Age
Attention is the raw material of every meaningful thing: love, craft, thought, prayer. And it is precisely what the modern environment is engineered to harvest and sell.
This makes the deliberate act of attending — to a person, a page, a problem — quietly radical. It is not a productivity trick. It is a way of refusing to have your life spent on your behalf.
Protect a single hour of undivided attention today. Treat it as the scarce resource it has become.
