All time isn’t equal
Focus matters when it comes to working with impact.
Every time you get distracted, you gather attention residue. Think of it like dust on your “windshield” of focus. When you decide to stop paying attention, you get dust. That dust makes it hard to see where you’re going.
If you ever had dust on your windshield non-metaphorically, you realize how annoying it is to clean. You can’t just “wait it out,” you have to stop and wash the windshield. Cleaning takes time.
Our minds automatically do this when we gather “attention residue.” The amount of time it takes for our “pit-stop?”
Twenty minutes.
Think about that the next time you think you can “check email real quick.”
