The Distracted Mind: Ancient Brains in a High-Tech World By Adam Gazzaley and Larry D. Rosen Our brains aren't built for media multitasking, but rather switching rapidly between tasks. Distractions and interruptions from technology can collide with our goal-setting abilities, making it difficult to focus. This book offers practical strategies, backed by science, to help you fight distraction and live in a more balanced way. You're likely familiar with the feeling of needing to check your phone or social media while trying to work on a task. But what's really happening in your brain? The authors explain how our brains are limited in their ability to pay attention and provide tips on how to change this, using techniques such as meditation, video games, and physical exercise. By understanding the science behind distraction and learning practical strategies for managing it, you can take control of your technology use and improve your productivity.
