Today, there are far too many things to pay attention to, and there is far too little time to attend to them.
On my better days, I aspire to deal with the above problem accordingly: I desire to consider what I value most, and to structure my time accordingly.
Often, instead, I allow my attention to be scattered by the next email, the next text, the next darn thing, instead of ordered by what I consider to be of ultimate importance.
In this second instance, my failure to choose functions as a choice.
