My Surprising Takeaways from Stolen Focus by Johann Hari

Is it just social media and digital distractions to blame for our lack of focus? Or is there more to it? In this video I share my views on the book Stolen Focus (Why You Can’t Pay Attention) by Johann Hari

I was recommended Stolen Focus twice, so quickly added it to my holiday reading list - and it wasn’t what I expected. In fact, it was better. There were some surprising insights from this book, and even though it’s no self-help book it did give me the motivation to change a few digital distractions in my own life, which I share in the video.
