A wealth of information, a poverty of attention

Larry Janesky: Think Daily

We are awash in information. We can spend all our time paying attention to it, and gathering it, but how much time does that leave for us to act on what is important to us? Most information is someone else’s agenda. What about our agenda?  

PS – “A wealth of information, a poverty of attention.” Guess when those words were written?  

1971! Way before the Weapons of Mass Distraction (smart phones) got into our pockets!

We can dazzle them with technology, but we still have to win hem over with our words.

And good morning to you,Larry. Appreciate your kind words.
I’m experiencing a withdrawal effect and liking the benefits. Working an area where I have zilch phone service. No email, no text, no phone. So full commitment to the task at hand with no distractions.
Frustrating and odd in the beginning but I am enjoying it while it lasts.

Good morning Larry! Have a great day!
