Short Attention Span? Here’s How It’s Destroying Your Life

Your short attention span is preventing you from living your dream life. Here's why 👇🏻

A short attention span = dopamine addiction.

We're constantly on the hunt to satisfy our content addiction.

However, this addiction cycle keeps you from achieving success.

If you want to change your life, you have to be willing to give up instant gratification and build assets that will improve your life.

Sure, it isn't easy, but nothing worth having comes easily.

I can't even watch an episode of a web series without pausing it for atleast 3-4 times. People are still not aware of this 'Shrinking attention span' thing.

I agree. It also affects how far we can hold on to patience.. I wish I didn't get addicted to my phone, then maybe I'm living this life to the fullest

This is an actual problem. Most people, including myself barely have an attention span nowadays due to social media. The long term effects of this can be extremely harmful to us both individually and collectively as a society.

I’m glad you mentioned tiktoks and short-paced videos. Although this is a short-paced one, I commend you for talking about the issue!

FACTS! Set realistic reachable goals. Take action instead of just consuming content.

I’m so glad you said that I’ve always thought that and have dealt with short attention span and that’s why now for years I’ve been meditating and it helps me perform so much better in life I do 2 10 minute sessions a day where all I do is lay down and feel my breath for 10 minutes each and after I feel like I can focus so well

This was a bit of a wake up call for me but you explained it in a great “cause and effect” type method that made me understand better. So thank you for that

[RustyBites]

Okay but my doctor did say I was born with ADD so even before I had a phone this was a serious problem that I was diagnosed with at the age of 7.

Perfectly said. Should be surprised if majority understood this.

every time i get into a loop of habits and addictions that ruin my attention span I notice a significant decrease in willingness to engage in schoolwork, and by willingness I mean a genuine repulsive feeling. Not to the point of "oh well i just dont feel like it right now" or "i just wanna do this other thing right now" but actually having a feeling in my brain that repulses the idea of doing work.

i swear even with adhd my attention span is better than some of my peers lol

[Clogmonger]

This was a great interruption of my time wasting on shorts. Thanks bud. I'm gonna go get some shit done. This short was ace.

[TheAdventuresOfJimiJaden]

Oh god, I’m realizing this just now. I’ll like watch a movie on laserdisc, but for some reason I start to get bored on go on my phone. I should probably lay off the portable screen.
