Smartphone and app makers didn’t invent distraction – they’re just the latest culprit. Before smartphones, we blamed distraction on television 📺 And before that, it was the telephone ☎️ Go back a little further and it was comic books 🦸 Or the radio 📻 Go back more than 2,000 years, and Socrates was even criticising the written word, for causing ‘forgetfulness in the learners’ souls’. Distraction has been around for as long as we have! I recently authored a piece that appeared in Psyche Magazine where I discussed how to become indistractable. I talk about: Why we need to stop blaming tech The root causes of distraction And more! I’ve included a link in the comments section! Do you know anybody who might be interested in the article? 👇 #Indistractable #Tech #Innovation #Author …see more
