Episode Description
For today's episode, I'll be discussing digital distraction and how we're playing a game when online, where our attention is being harvested intentionally to further someone else's agenda.
I hope that after listening to this episode, a door will open for you, as it did for me, to take a closer look at where our time is going when using the internet, more specifically, our smartphones. Are we using them as a tool to optimize,
or is it like a vampire, extracting precious minutes from every one of us, one-click or scroll at a time?
For the following books, I'm going to reference, know that I'm only scratching the surface of all the learning nuggets in each of the titles. If something resonates with you from a particular book, by the end of this episode, I highly encourage you
to pick up a copy of your own and read it. The links are below. With that, enjoy this episode; thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!
