Over-allocated Attention and the Associated Stress - DBR 077 54:26

5d ago54:26

Our attention is over-allocated by a nexus of events. This episode is what to do about that. I'm gonna acknowledge something that I'm not a big fan of. Apparently April is stress awareness month. So, if you weren't aware of stress, stress is a thing. I think most of us are aware of it. I don't want to be a curmudgeon but oh my word. Yes, I'm alread…

This one's about optimism and pessimism, and what that has to do with productivity. I and the whole thing is a productivity concern for me. We talk about confidence around these parts.

I started out talking about the lies of productivity, but I’m going to change to fables because it's just things we collectively believe without much evidence.

49:53

Most everybody involved in knowledge work is involved with technology. It's what we do. We deal in information, so we deal with information technology.

After all, that is its purpose in the moder…

"Attention Crisis"? What is the Argument and the Evidence - DBR 071 45:36

There's an article in The New Yorker "What If The Attention Crisis Is All A Distraction" by Daniel Immerwahr.

It's time to update on philosophy of work; I've got some more info for you.

One of the primary uses of information is to help us learn. When we are explicitly learning, we work to collect information. It works the other way, as well. As we are exposed to new information, we have the opportunity to learn. The relationship between learning and merely storing information in our brains is mysterious. Many people would say that…

I'm interested in this difference between busy and productive, if there is one. It’s hard to tell the difference, even from the inside.

We mean that our time is fully or somewhat over comm…
