Do you believe that our attention spans are shrinking?

Simple answer: Absolutely!

Let’s talk about online usage. How easy is it to come off a computer, smart phone or any other electrical product that links to the internet?

Not easy!

I have been known to be a massive gamer in the past, so I do know how this feels and sort of how it works. Every time I had a chance to play an online game (app) on my mobile phone, I would take that opportunity. When I got home from work or job search, whenever I had a break, every morning I wake up. You name the time, I was probably playing a game.

I gave up with technology a while back, gave up playing games. Guess what … I actually feel better in myself. I am able to concentrate better at work, when I blog and even when I read a book or newspaper.

Now talking about reading books and being online. Are you able to read a book in one sitting?

I could never read a book in one sitting … NEVER! My brain tries too hard to visualise the story line too much or overthink what was going on. I have managed to read and complete a book over two days on two occasions.

All in all, I think that we all should reduce our online time and pay attention to reality.
