Gloria Mark: Attention Span (2023, Harlequin Enterprises ULC) 4 stars

A good, practical look at how our attention works

4 stars

Overall very good. I was afraid it would be yet another "achieve more with this one crazy hack" type books, but it was more focused on the research.

The chapter towards the end that talks about the potential of AI felt cringey, misguided and tacked on, but understandable.

The antidote for ex-productivity obsessed/afflicted people.

5 stars

I almost feel like this book was written specifically for me. I read one chapter a day (admittedly missing occasional days) which worked really well. Every chapter had something relevant for me to take away and ponder further.

I plan to revisit it every few months.
