Is your ability to focus and pay attention in free fall?

You are not alone. The average office worker now focuses on any one task for just three minutes. But it’s not your fault. Your attention didn’t collapse. It has been stolen.

Internationally bestselling author Johann Hari shows twelve deep factors harming our focus. Once we understand them, together, we can take back our minds.

It’s time to reconnect

I’m guilt of it and I need to make changes.
This audiobook offer just that

Shocking truths and shockingly confrontational

Good reading voice, the author, and very interesting gathering of processes working against our well being, development and growth. Thank you very much, mr Hari!

Excellent.

Thank you for bringing such an important subject to my attention. I highly, highly recommend everyone read it!

An eye opener

This book is a real eye opener, overwhelming at times.
I have had issues with focus and was looking for something to help with that. This book is not a self help book but it really goes deep into the topic. It provides so much information which I really enjoyed. Well done

Good book, worth listening to

No major surprises, typical American style of telling a lot of stories and examples to relate the point in many words. But the content is good, even if watered down a lot
